Basic Physis Series: Stationary Longitudinal

Year Published: 1953

Format: 16mm

Description: Uses animated diagrams to illustrate the nature of stationary longitudinal waves. Specifies their unique characteristics and identifies nodes and antinodes, incident and reflected pulses, and phase reversal. Uses a series of beads connected by springs to visualize the behavior of the waves when the end of the wave is fixed and when the end is movable, and compares the two kinds of wave motion.
