Two identical pulses are moving in opposite directions
along a stretched string that has one fixed end and the
other movable, as shown in (Figure 1).
because the pulses are identical and cancel each other out
because constructive interference occurs only when the pulses have the same amplitude
Above each pulse a green arrow indicates the direction
of motion of the pulse.
