A standing wave is formed on a string fixed at both the ends. The individual waves i.e., incident wave and reflected wave are \(y_{1}(x, t)=a \sin (k x-\omega t)\) and \(y_{2}(x, t)=a \sin (k x+\omega t)\), respectively. The two waves have same wavelength ‘\(\lambda\)’.
 The distance between any two consecutive anti-nodes is
  1. \(\lambda\)
  2. \(\frac{\lambda}{2}\)
  3. \(\frac{3 \lambda}{2}\)
  4. \(2 \lambda\)

Answer

(B) 2
