Singing plates - Standing Waves on Chladni plates
Use physics to create cool patterns on a vibrating plate. How is this like a guitar string or a singing wine glass?

How Is This Standing Wave Possible?
When standing waves are allowed at 15, 30, and 45 hertz on a string, then we should not see a standing wave pattern at 22 hertz. Yet, we do in this demonstration. This explains why.

Standing Waves Introduction
Reflection with and without inversion caused by fixed and free ends are demonstrated. Standing wave patterns at 5 different frequencies are demonstrated. A standing wave animation is shown to understand to how standing wave patterns are...

Standing Waves and Harmonics
Not all waves travel across the ocean or across the universe. Some are stuck in a certain spot! Like the vibrations of the strings on a guitar. What's the deal with these standing waves? And what's this, quantization? Oh my! We'd better...

STEMbite: Standing Waves
The casual voice of the filmmaker explains standing waves using a linked chain bordering a neighborhood parking lot, a bucket of blue-colored water, and a rope tied to a fan blade. He uses the appropriate vocabulary (frequency,...
