A simple experiment to study standing waves on a string
The
Melde's Apparatus is a simple way to introduce students to the concept of
standing waves.
The apparatus consists of a string and an oscillator to generate different
frequencies. Melde's experiment is ideal to study the behaviour of standing
waves.
You can even visually determine wavelength, period and amplitude of waves.
