Two waves {standing wave} can travel in opposite directions from point and then reflect back from end barriers, so they reinforce each other {resonance, wave}| when they meet again, because they are in phase.
node
Resonating waves are stationary. In stationary waves, some points {node, wave} always have zero displacement.
wavelength
Fundamental standing-wave wavelength is two times distance between endpoints. Closed tubes have resonant wavelength one-quarter tube length. Open tubes have resonant wavelength one-half tube length. String resonant frequency is lower if string length is longer.
