The ends of a stretched wire of length $L$ are fixed at $x = 0$ and $x = L.$ In one experiment,the displacement of the wire is ${y_1} = A\sin (\pi x/L)\sin \omega t$ and energy is ${E_1}$,and in another experiment its displacement is ${y_2} = A\sin (2\pi x/L)\sin 2\omega t$ and energy is ${E_2}$. Then

$A$ wave $y = a \cos (kx + \omega t)$ superimposes on another wave to form a stationary wave having a node at $x = 0$. What is the equation of the other wave?

The equation of a stationary wave is $Y = 10 \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{4} \right) \cos (20 \pi t)$. The distance between two consecutive nodes in metres is

Two identical progressive waves moving in opposite directions superimpose to produce a stationary wave. The wavelength of each progressive wave is $\lambda$. The wavelength of the stationary wave is

$A$ standing wave pattern of amplitude $A$ in a string of length $L$ shows $2$ nodes (plus those at two ends). If one end of the string corresponds to the origin and $v$ is the speed of the progressive wave,the disturbance in the string could be represented (with appropriate phase) as:
