Standing Waves 2011

written by Richard Tarara

This zip file download includes a Microsoft Windows simulation of a lab focusing on a vibrating string attached to a mass over a pulley. The user can change the string tension by changing the mass and the frequency of the string's vibration and observe the resulting motion, finding resonances.

Please note that this resource requires MS-Windows.
