A wave appears to be stationary if the medium is moving in the opposite direction to that of the wave. Examples can be seen in river surfing. Or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves, with frequency, traveling in opposite directions.

Standing waves (also known as stationary waves) are set up as a result of the superposition of two waves with the same amplitude and frequency, travelling at the same speed, but in opposite directions.

When two waves having equal frequencies and equal amplitude, equal wave length meet each other in a cimmon medium, they produce stationary waves, alsi known as standing waves. They dont transports any energy. Just the milecules in the medium occilate at their mean posituins with different amolitude..

Stationary wave is combination of 2 waves moving in opposite directions both having same amplitude and frequency.

A standing wave pattern is a vibrational pattern created within a medium when the vibrational frequency of the source causes reflected waves from one end of the medium to interfere with incident waves from the source. This interference occurs in such a manner that specific points along the medium appear...

In physics, a standing wave -- also known as a stationary wave -- is a wave that remains in a constant position. Two opposing waves combine to form a standing wave. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium...

In physics, a standing wave – also known as a stationary wave – is a wave that remains in a constant position. Two opposing waves combine to form a standing wave. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions. In the second case, for waves of equal amplitude traveling in opposing directions, there is on average no net propagation of energy. In a resonator, standing waves occur during the phenomenon known as resonance. read less

A wave in which each point on the wave has a constant amplitude, ranging from zero at the nodes to a maximum, equal to the amplitude of the wave, at the antinodes.A common example is the vibration of the strings on a musical stringed instrument.

Standing waves (also known as stationary waves) are set up as a result of the superposition of two waves with the same amplitude and frequency, travelling at the same speed, but in opposite directions. The waves are moving, but the same places have a very large amplitude oscillation while others have zero amplitude and continuous destructive interference. Stationary waves may be set up when a wave reflects back from a surface and the reflected wave interferes with the wave still travelling in the original direction. read less
