Find the wrong statement from the following about the equation of a stationary wave given by $Y = 0.04 \cos(\pi x) \sin(50 \pi t) \text{ m}$,where $t$ is in seconds.

Which of the following statements is incorrect for a stationary wave?

$A$ wave of frequency $100 \, Hz$ is sent along a string towards a fixed end. When this wave travels back after reflection,a node is formed at a distance of $10 \, cm$ from the fixed end of the string. The speed of the incident (and reflected) wave is .... $m/s$.
