Circular Standing Waves in a Ripple Tank

Circular Standing Waves Standing waves have stationary nodal and antinodal patterns.
Circular Standing Waves - Three Nodal and Four Antinodal Rings When the wave driver frequency is 5.33 Hz, standing waves with three nodal and four antinodal rings are established.
Circular Standing Waves - Four Nodal and Five Antinodal Rings When the wave driver frequency is 7.00 Hz, standing waves with four nodal and five antinodal rings are established.
Circular Standing Waves - Five Nodal and Six Antinodal Rings When the wave driver frequency is 8.71 Hz, standing waves with five nodal and six antinodal rings are established.
Circular Standing Waves - Six Nodal and Seven Antinodal Rings When the wave driver frequency is 10.25 Hz, standing waves with six nodal and seven antinodal rings are established.

Circular standing waves in a ripple tank are demonstrated.
