Stationary Waves
 

Stationary Waves problem 37


Two waves of equal frequency and amplitude are travelling in opposite directions along a stretched string. When they meet, they form a stationary wave with three nodes and two antinodes. The frequency of both waves is doubled and a new stationary wave is formed. How many antinodes are there in the new stationary wave?
