A standing wave is a wave that appears to be standing still, causing the medium to vibrate in a stationary pattern of loops. This effect is produced by the interference of two waves with the same frequency and amplitude traveling in opposite directions.

What is a wave that causes the medium to vibrate in stationery pattern resembling a loop or series of loops?

A wave that causes the medium to vibrate in stationery pattern resembling a loop or series of loops is called a resonant wave.


How stationary waves are formed?

Stationary waves are formed when two waves of equal amplitude and frequency traveling in opposite directions interfere with each other. This causes certain points, called nodes and anti-nodes, to appear stationary while other points continue to vibrate. The interference pattern creates a standing wave pattern that appears to be stationary.

Are molecules inside the solid stationary or in a continuous motion?

In a solid, molecules are not stationary; they are constantly in motion. Although the molecules vibrate around fixed positions, they still have kinetic energy that causes them to move. This motion is more restricted compared to the movement of molecules in liquids or gases.


How does conduction heat solids?

Heat energy from the source causes the particles to oscillate (vibrate) this chains and causes neighbouring particles to vibrate.

What type of energy causes other particles to vibrate?

Thermal energy causes particles to vibrate. When thermal energy is transferred to an object, its particles gain kinetic energy, causing them to move and vibrate.

Mechanical waves are created when a source of energy causes a medium to?

vibrate or oscillate. This vibration is then transferred through the medium, causing particles in the medium to also vibrate. This transfer of energy produces the mechanical wave.
