    Abstract

    There are plenty of contributions in the physics literature on the subject of standing waves. What seems to be missing is an accessible, quantitative account of standing waves on a circular path at a level appropriate for undergraduate physics courses. In order to rectify this absence, a straightforward, concise, mathematical description of standing waves on a circular path is presented in terms of standard circular motion parameters.
