So mark an adjacent antinode, showing where it will be at the same time as the antinode position that you marked.thatguy4000 said:
One antinode point would be up and one would be down. Would that mean they are in phase though?haruspex said:
The solid line is where the string is physically. The dashed line is where the string will be in half a cycle. How does this relate to phase?kuruman said:
That's what phase is - the fraction of a cycle difference in being at a given stage, where a whole cycle is a 2π phase difference.thatguy4000 said:
If 2π is one cycle, what is half a cycle?thatguy4000 said:
Yes. To the last statement.thatguy4000 said:
Well done.thatguy4000 said:
The Antinode of a string is the point of maximum amplitude in a standing wave. It is located at the midpoint of the string and is where the string oscillates with the greatest displacement.
The motion of the string at the Antinode is described as a point of maximum displacement and minimum velocity. The string is at its maximum amplitude and does not move up or down, but rather vibrates back and forth.
The motion of the string at the Antinode is affected by the tension, length, and mass of the string. The frequency of the wave and the properties of the medium through which the wave is traveling also play a role.
The motion of the string at the Antinode is different from the motion at other points because it is at its maximum amplitude and does not move in a specific direction. At other points, the string may have a minimum or zero amplitude and move in a specific direction.
The motion of the string at the Antinode is directly related to the wavelength of the wave. The distance between two consecutive Antinodes is equal to half the wavelength of the wave. As the wavelength increases, the distance between Antinodes also increases, resulting in a larger amplitude at the Antinode.
