Why do standing waves on strings only happen at certain frequencies?

Standing waves on strings only happen at certain frequencies because the length of the string must be an exact multiple of half-wavelengths for resonance to occur. This condition allows the waves to interfere constructively, forming a stable pattern of nodes and antinodes. Frequencies that do not meet this requirement will not result in standing waves.


Do chemical reactions only occur in the natural environment?

No. They can occur in the laboratory also.


How does the age of someone affect the frequencies of sound they can hear?

As people age, their ability to hear high frequencies diminishes. This is due to natural changes in the inner ear that occur with age, such as the loss of hair cells that are responsible for detecting high-pitched sounds. Younger individuals can typically hear frequencies up to around 20,000 Hz, while older adults may only be able to hear frequencies up to around 12,000-14,000 Hz.


Is glass transparent or opaque to light frequencies that match its own natural frequencies?

If you speak about seen light, the only way to make transparent glass not light transfering is coloring it with some colors that negate (filter) some other colors

Does the red light from glowing neon gas have only one frequency or a mixture of frequencies?

a mixture of frequencies.


What is the range of frequencies?

there are an infinite range of frequencies limited only by the mechanical limitations of the medium creating and transferring it.


Do physical changes occur in natural processes only?

No. Many physical processes occur by artificial means. Boiling water on a stove or freezing it in a freezer is one common example.


What is electronic filter?

Filter is an electronic device which passes specific frequency and attenuates all other.There are 4 types of filters: 1) Highpass - passes only high frequencies 2)Lowpass - passes only low frequencies 3)bandpass-passes only specefic band of frequencies 4)band reject-passes all frequencies excepting desired band


Can destructive interference occur in waves of different frequencies?

Yes, because propagation speeds may vary. Beware the conventional error in considering only 'frequency' which is a metaphysical conception requiring 'time'. Much confusion arises from this error. The proper 'real' scalar directly producing interference effects is 'WAVELENGTH'.
