Wavelength of standing wave in string with fixed ends ===================================================== If a standing wave occurs in a string with fixed ends, the value of the displacement function :math:`q(x)` must be zero on both ends of the string. To satisfy this boundary condition, only an integer number of half-waves can fit into the total length of the string. **Conditions:** #. Boundary condition: :math:`q(0) = q(L) = 0`. **Links:** #. `Wikipedia `__. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.laws.waves.wavelength_of_standing_wave_in_string_with_fixed_ends .. py:data:: integer_factor Positive integer, also called *harmonic number* of the :math:`n`-th harmonic.
