Abstract

Various textbooks are not in agreement as to whether the vibrating piston is at a node or "near a node." The theory shows that it is strictly at a node. The misstatement in regard to the location of the piston has probably been caused by a misunderstanding of the word "node.” The piston is one-half wave-length from the nearest node and yet it is strictly not a point of rest.
