Which of the following statements about standing waves is not true?

• Particles between adjacent nodes oscillate with varying amplitudes.

• Particles between adjacent nodes are moving in phase with each other.

• Particles immediately either side of a node are moving in opposite directions

• Particles undergo no disturbance at an antinode.

A glass tube, closed at one end, has a loudspeaker placed at the other end. This is used to create a vibrating column of air, producing sound.

The wave in the tube is best described as

• longitudinal and progressive

• longitudinal and standing.

• transverse and progressive.

• transverse and standing.
