The equation of a stationary wave along a stretched string is given by $y = 5 \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{3} \right) \cos (40 \pi t)$. Here $x$ and $y$ are in $cm$ and $t$ is in seconds. The separation between two adjacent nodes is: (in $cm$)

  • A
    $1.5$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $14$
