Chladni's law

Chladni's law, named after

for flat circular surfaces with fixed center as a function of the numbers m of diametric (linear) nodes and n of radial (circular) nodes. It is stated as the equation

${\displaystyle f=C(m+2n)^{p}}$

where C and p are

church bells in which case p can vary from 1.4 to 2.4.^[2]

In fact, p can even vary for a single object, depending on which family of modes is being examined.
