  2. Melde's experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melde's_experiment

    In this experiment the change in frequency produced when the tension is increased in the string – similar to the change in pitch when a guitar string is tuned – will be measured. From this the mass per unit length of the string / wire can be derived. This is called as the principle of the Melde's Experiment

  3. 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.

  4. Standing wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave

    The string again has small damping and is driven by a small driving force at x = 0. In this case, Equation still describes the standing wave pattern that can form on the string, and the string has the same boundary condition of y = 0 at x = 0. However, at x = L where the string can move freely there should be an anti-node with maximal amplitude ...

  5. String theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory

    String theory is a theoretical framework that attempts to address these questions. The starting point for string theory is the idea that the point-like particles of particle physics can also be modeled as one-dimensional objects called strings. String theory describes how strings propagate through space and interact with each other.

  7. Reflection phase change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_phase_change

    The voltage wave reflection on a line terminated with a short circuit is 180° phase shifted. This is analogous (by the mobility analogy) to a string where the end is fixed in position, or a sound wave in a tube with a blocked off end. The current wave, on the other hand, is not phase shifted. broken / open line

  9. Node (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    A standing wave. The red dots are the wave nodes. A node is a point along a standing wave where the wave has minimum amplitude. 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 ...
