Select thesentence that is true about standing waves.

A node is a point that has no displacement from the rest position

Standing waves appear to move through a medium, such as a string.

Complete destructive interference occurs at antinodes.

A standing wave will form for any wavelength, as long as two ends of a rope or string are stretched tightly between two points

The reflected wave will be turned upside down.

The frequency of the wave will decrease.

The amplitude will double as it strikes the surface.

The speed of the wave will decrease.

What are the properties of sound waves?

speed, intensity/loudness, and frequency/pitch
