In stationary waves

When ever stationary waves are set up, in any medium, then

A stationary wave is set up in a resonance air column of a glass tube partially filled with water by holding a tuning fork near the open end, the open end of the tube is :

Two wires of radii r and 2r are welded together end to end. The combination is used as a sonometer wire and is kept under a tension T. The welded point is midway between the bridges. The ratio of the number of loops formed in the wires, such that the joint is a node when stationary vibrations are set up in the wires, is

In a stationary wave all the particles of the medium

(A): In a perfect stationary wave, there is no transfer of energy. (R): There is no net onward motion of the disturbance from one particle to adjoining particle in stationary wave.

(A): For the formation of stationary waves the medium must be bounded (having definite boundaries). (R): In the stationary wave, some particles of the medium remain permanently at rest.
