Question 23
Medium

A uniform wire of length 2.4 m is clamped firmly at both ends. Under tension, stationary waves can be established along the wire.

Which statement is not correct?

The distance between adjacent nodes for the third harmonic is 0.80 m0.80\text{ m}0.80 m.

The midpoint of the wire is a node for all even-numbered harmonics.

The wavelength of the second harmonic is 1.2 m1.2\text{ m}1.2 m.

A stationary wave with a wavelength of 0.96 m0.96\text{ m}0.96 m has exactly 5 antinodes.
