Assertion : In the nth normal mode of vi...

Assertion `:` In the `nth` normal mode of vibration of a string, there are `(n+1)` nodes and `n` antinodes.
Reason `:` This is because both the ends of the string are fixed and from nodes.

A

both, Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

both, Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

D

both,Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Reason is correct explanation of the assertion, which it true.
Position of nodes is given by
`x=0,(L)/(n), (2L)/(n), (3L)/(n)......(nL)/(n)`
Antinodes are at `x=(L)/(2n), (3L)/(2n), (5L)/(n),......`
