Questions  

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

detailed solution

Correct option is A

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
