$A$ standing wave $y = A \sin \left( \frac{20}{3} \pi x \right) \cos (1000 \pi t)$ is maintained in a taut string,where $y$ and $x$ are expressed in meters. The distance between the successive points oscillating with the amplitude $A/2$ across a node is equal to ... $cm$.

The stationary wave produced on a string is represented by the equation $y = 5 \cos (\pi x / 3) \sin (40 \pi t)$. Where $x$ and $y$ are in $cm$ and $t$ is in seconds. The distance between consecutive nodes is .... $cm$.

Which is the most important property of a stationary wave?

The $(x, y)$ coordinates of the corners of a square plate are $(0, 0), (L, 0), (L, L)$ and $(0, L).$ The edges of the plate are clamped and transverse standing waves are set up in it. If $u(x, y)$ denotes the displacement of the plate at the point $(x, y)$ at some instant of time,the possible expression$(s)$ for $u$ is(are) ($a =$ positive constant).

What is the fundamental mode?

In a vibrating string with fixed ends,the waves are of type:
