In a standing wave, node is a point of

1. maximum strain
2. maximum pressure
3. maximum density
4. All of these

Correct answer: All of these

Solution

In a standing wave, a node is a point of zero displacement, but in a longitudinal wave that means the medium’s compression/rarefaction pattern is most intense there. So pressure, density, and strain can all be maximum at a node.
