When a sonometer wire vibrates in the second overtone, there are

A

three nodes and three antinodes

B

four nodes and three antinodes

C

one node and two antinodes

D

two nodes and three antinodes

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Secnd overtone = Third harmonic
There will be 3 loops. Hence there are four nodes and three antinodes.
