Key Stage 5
Meaning
An antinode is a point in a stationary wave pattern where the amplitude is at a maximum.
About Antinodes
- Antinodes occur at positions where constructive interference happens.
- They are the opposite of nodes, where amplitude is zero.
- Found in standing wave patterns in physics, such as on strings or in air columns.
