Answer:-

Difference between travelling and standing waves :-

Travelling waves:-

The distrubance moves along the direction of waves.

→ Travelling waves transport energy from one area of space to another.

→ The amplitude is same for all the particles.

→ Travelling waves move from place to place by transporting energy.

Standing waves:-

Disturbance does not moves.

→ Standing waves do not transport energy

→ The amplitude varies from 0 to maximum.

→ The standing waves occur for certain frequencies.

★ What is a travelling wave?

→ Travelling wave also known as progressive wave or transverse wave.

→ It is the wave which travels in same direction without changing it's amplitude. And it's amplitude is called as travelling wave or progressive wave.

→ The particles cross the mean position at different time.

→ It transport energy from one area of space to another.

→ No particles are at rest.

★ What is standing wave?

→ Standing waves are also called as stationary waves.

→ Superposition of 2 identical waves travelling in opposite direction. This phenomenon of formation of waves is called stationary waves or standing waves.

→ All the particles cross the mean position simultaneously.

→ The maximum amplitudes of standing wave keep occurring in the same place.

→ The particles at the node position are always at rest.
