In a sound wave, a displacement node is a pressure antinode and vice- versa. Explain, why ?

Answer»

At the point, where a compression and a rarefaction meet, the displacement is minimum and it is called displacement node. At this point, pressure difference is maximum i.e. at the same point it is a pressure antinode. On the other hand, at the mid point of compression or a rarefaction, the displacement variation is maximum i.e. such a point is pressure node, as pressure variation is minimum at such point.
