Reflection of a Pulse (Free end)
- The simulation represents a transverse pulse traveling along a string towards a free end. The end of the string is free to move.
- The pulse reflects from the free end which is represented by the vertical black dotted line.
- The red line shows the resultant shape of the string, the blue line shows the incident pulse and the green line shows the reflected pulse.
- Tick Show resultant only to show only the resultant shape of the string.
- The dotted blue line shows where the pulse would be if the string continued on and the pulse was not reflected.
