Resonances of open air columns
Pictorial description of waves in pipes. Includes ability to input information and obtain frequencies. Shows applications in musical instruments.

Explorescience: Driven Harmonic Motion (1 mass)
Apply a driving force to a mass between two springs. This activity helps you understand natural and resonant frequencies. Subscription site but with 30 day free trial.

Explorescience: Driven Harmonic Motion (2 masses)
Apply a driving force to two masses and three springs. Vary masses, spring constants and frequencies & observe different modes of resonance. Subscription site but with 30 day free trial.

Wave Adder
This site is rather complex to use but allows users to set up two waves of a certain amplitude, frequency and wavelength and add them together.

Fourier Synthesis
Sliders on one side allow different amplitudes of different multiples of frequency to be added. The sound can then be played.

Ripple Tank Simulation
An online simulation of waves in a ripple tank. See what happens when you add more than one source, sources of different frequencies, walls, moving sources.
