Making standing waves
Loading...
Uploaded by froudedude on Feb 26, 2009
A standing wave is made by sending a wave group down the tank against a fixed wall. The reflected wave will superimpose upon the incident waves doubling the amplitude. As the wave maker imparts more energy in to the system, the amplitude increases. The waves are sustained by gravity and hydrostatic force and dissipated by fluid viscosity (the frictional forces against the wall are negligible). The video has been edited as the clopotis and seiche that occur last over a half hour and are eventually killed with the wave maker acting as an absorber, as it tries to produce waves offset by one half period of the waves hitting it.

Very interesting...Everything is frequency. Similar to the Time Wave Zero, fractal time, repeats itself and as it spirals towards zero point (2012), the wave compresses closer and closer together.

cool

cool very interesting, love to see this in wave pools.

i can't believe this happened...

Amplitude: The "height" so to speak of the wave from equilibrium. Ie. The distance from equilibrium from the crest to the eq. point or the trough to the eq. point.
Wavelength: The distance from one point on a wave to the exact same point on the next wave
Wave-number: 2pi/wavelength
Period: The time for one oscillation to occur
Frequency: the number of oscillations over a given amount of time (reciprocal of period)
Angular frequency: 2pi * frequency
Velocity: The wave's speed

Would someone kindly tell me what the amplitude, wavelength, wave-number, period, frequency, angular frequency and velocity of the wave is? :)

Watching this video while listening to dubstep and the waves are synchronizing with the beat, ahaha.
