Question

Which of the following is the best option?

a) standing waves

b) superposition waves

c) frequency waves

d) electromagnetic waves

Answer 1

a) standing waves are the waves that form nodes and antinodes as a result of interference between the waves moving in opposite directions along a fixed medium like a string. Therefore, the correct answer is a) standing waves.
