How Strings Actually Vibrate
After watching this video, we assumed that plucked guitar strings vibrated in smooth, undulating curves. But minutephysics shows how that’s not actually the case. It turns out that the waves that are generated are straighter and more angular, and the sine waves we’ve seen in videos before are mostly due to rolling shutter artifacts of

It turns out that the waves that are generated are straighter and more angular, and the sine waves we’ve seen in videos before are mostly due to rolling shutter artifacts of digital cameras.
