A standing wave is set up in the rod.
Explain how a standing wave is formed.
My answer:
Superposition of a continuous wave reflected from a boundary with its incident wave will produce an interference pattern called a standing wave. Maxima are called nodes and minima are called antinodes.
Would I get full marks?
suggests the waves have the same frequency/wavelength, right?
Is that enough to support the last marking point where it says nodes and antinodes produced? Would I get BoD for that?
