Standing Waves
A standing wave, also known as a stationary wave, is a wave that remains in a constant position. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions.
Standing waves appear whenever waves are confined to a finite region. Standing waves always manifest as a logarithmic spiral which can be described through the Golden Ratio and is called a golden spiral.
