If you set up the seventh harmonic on a string fixed at both ends, how many nodes and antinodes are set up in it

A

8, 7

B

7, 7

C

8, 9

D

9, 8

Answer

8, 7

Explanation

Solution

String will vibrate in 7 loops so it will have 8 nodes 7 antinodes. Number of harmonics = Number of loops = Number of antinodes

⇒ Number of antinodes = 7

Hence number of nodes = Number of antinodes + 1

=7+1=8= 7 + 1 = 8
