Equation of a stationary wave is $y = 10 \sin \frac{\pi x}{4} \cos 20 \pi t.$ Distance between two consecutive nodes is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
On comparing the given equation with standard equation $\frac{2 \pi}{\lambda} = \frac{\pi}{4}$
$\Rightarrow \lambda = 8^\circ$
Hence distance between two consecutive nodes $\frac{\lambda}{2} = 4$
