Mecanichal Waves

A mechanical wave is related to the disruption of a material medium and can therefore be longitudinal or transverse in the direction of the disturbance relative to the propagation of the wave. In addition, they can actually spread along this support without material medium or be stationary under certain conditions.

Various devices are here proposed to understand and visualize pedagogically conventional vibratory phenomena (nodes and antinodes) to lay the foundation of the harmonic oscillator model.
