Wave machine
By means of this app, you can simulate everything that can be studied with a one-dimensional wave machine:

- Introduce a disturbance into a string and let your disturbance be reflected at a fixed or
 free end.
- Put oscillators at the left and/ or right end of the string to examine e.g the creation of
 standing waves.
- In order to better understand the superposition of waves, study your waves travelling
 from left to right and vice versa separately.
- Use arrows to illustrate a superposition.
- Change the settings of your wave and study its reflection in slow motion.
