2. Standing wave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave

   The standing wave with n = 1 oscillates at the fundamental frequency and has a wavelength that is twice the length of the string. Higher integer values of n correspond to modes of oscillation called harmonics or overtones. Any standing wave on the string will have n + 1 nodes including the fixed ends and n anti-nodes.

3. Melde's experiment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melde's_experiment

   Standing waves, in which each immobile point represents a node. A string undergoing transverse vibration illustrates many features common to all vibrating acoustic systems, whether these are the vibrations of a guitar string or the standing wave nodes in a studio monitoring room.

4. Reflection phase change - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_phase_change

   Standing waves on a string. A wave on a string experiences a 180° phase change when it reflects from a point where the string is fixed. [2] [3] Reflections from the free end of a string exhibit no phase change. The phase change when reflecting from a fixed point contributes to the formation of standing waves on strings, which produce the sound ...

5. String vibration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_vibration

   Vibration, standing waves in a string. The fundamental and the first 5 overtones in the harmonic series. A vibration in a string is a wave. Resonance causes a vibrating string to produce a sound with constant frequency, i.e. constant pitch. If the length or tension of the string is correctly adjusted, the sound produced is a musical tone.

6. Franz Melde - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Melde

   Standing waves, in which each immobile point represents a node. Franz Emil Melde (March 11, 1832 in Großenlüder near Fulda – March 17, 1901 in Marburg ) was a German physicist and professor . A graduate of the University of Marburg under Christian Ludwig Gerling , he later taught there, focusing primarily on acoustics , [ 1 ] also making ...

7. Node (physics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(physics)

   For instance, in a vibrating guitar string, the ends of the string are nodes. By changing the position of the end node through frets, the guitarist changes the effective length of the vibrating string and thereby the note played. The opposite of a node is an anti-node, a point where the amplitude of the standing wave is at maximum. These occur ...
