- Is it possible for three point sources emiting multiple waves of
- different amplitudes and frequencies to generate a wave
- pattern such that the sum of all the waves at all points near them
- will have a constant amplitude?
-
- In other words, can one make a standing wave without a boundry?
-
- How about with two point sources?
-
- Or just one?
