1. Each point along a progressive wave has equal amplitude, but for a stationary wave the amplitude varies.
2. Adjacent points on progressive waves vibrate with different phase but all particles between nodes in stationary waves vibrate in phase
3. Energy is transferred through space in progressive waves but not in the case of stationary waves

What can a standing wave tell you about a wave?
A standing wave can tell you about the resonant frequencies of a system. It is formed when a wave reflects back on itself and interferes constructively or destructively. The nodes and antinodes of a standing wave provide information about the wavelength and frequency of the wave.
Give an example of a common standing wave?
A guitar string vibrating at its fundamental frequency (first harmonic) is an example of a common standing wave. The fixed ends of the guitar string create nodes, and the string vibrates in segments with antinodes in between.
What type of wave is produced in banjo?
Standing sound waves.
Which type of wave is produced by flute?
Standing sound waves.
If the period of a wave is equal to the amount if time it takes for the wave to travel to a fixed point and back what is produced?
If the period of a wave is equal to the time it takes for the wave to travel to a fixed point and back, we can say that a standing wave is produced. This phenomenon occurs when two waves of equal frequency and amplitude but traveling in opposite directions interfere with each other, resulting in a wave pattern that appears stationary.
what condition is essential for the formation of a standing wave?
The condition essential for the formation of a standing wave is the interference of two waves with the same frequency and amplitude traveling in opposite directions along the same medium. This results in certain points, known as nodes and antinodes, where the amplitude of the wave appears to be standing still.
Are microwaves progressive or stationary?
Microwaves are in motion. If that qualifies as "progressive" then they are progressive. The are not stationary as any wave that carries energy wants to move. We can talk about something called "standing waves" in physics, but that's not the same thing. Microwave progress out from the point where they originate.
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still?
standing wave
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the wave appears to be standing still the result is a?
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result is a standing still wave.
When an oncoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result is a?
standing wave!
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result?
standing wave :)
What can a standing wave tell you about a wave?
A standing wave can tell you about the resonant frequencies of a system. It is formed when a wave reflects back on itself and interferes constructively or destructively. The nodes and antinodes of a standing wave provide information about the wavelength and frequency of the wave.
What are three types of progressive wave?
Longitudinal Wave,Transverse Wave,Orbital Wave
When an incoming wave combines with the reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still result is a?
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result is a standing still wave.
What does the formation of a standing wave require?
A standing wave requires a relative motion of the medium at the same velocity of the wave
What is the amplitude of this standing wave?
The amplitude of a standing wave is the maximum displacement of a point on the wave from its equilibrium position. It represents the height of the wave at its peak.
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result is a?
The result is a standing wave. Standing waves are created by the interference of two waves of the same frequency traveling in opposite directions and have points along the medium that appear to be vibrating in place.
