A stretched string is vibrating in the second overtone, then the number of nodes and antinodes between the ends of the string are respectively
- A \( 4 \) and \( 3 \)
- B \( 3 \) and \( 2 \)
- C \( 3 \) and \( 4 \)
- D \( 2 \) and \( 3 \)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \( 4 \) and \( 3 \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
For second overtone, consider the following figure:
There are \( 4 \) numbers of nodes and \( 3 \) number of antinodes.
There are \( 4 \) numbers of nodes and \( 3 \) number of antinodes.
