1. Standing waves are produced from two waves of equal amplitude and frequency travelling in direction. ● 2. The lowest natural frequency of a vibrating system is called as its 3. The points that have the maximum displacement are called 4. The of the standing wave remains constant when the number of harmonics is increasing.
