standing wave — Physics. a wave in a medium in which each point on the axis of the wave has an associated constant amplitude ranging from zero at the nodes to a maximum at the antinodes. Also called stationary wave. [1905 10] * * * ▪ physics also called… … Universalium
Vibrating structure gyroscope — A vibrating structure gyroscope is a type of gyroscope that functions much like the halteres of an insect. The underlying physical principle is that a vibrating object tends to continue vibrating in the same plane as its support rotates. In the… … Wikipedia
Node (physics) — A standing wave. The red dots are the wave nodes A node is a point along a standing wave where the wave has minimal amplitude. For instance, in a vibrating guitar string, the ends of the string are nodes. By changing the position of the end node… … Wikipedia
