The correct statement about stationary waves is that

Standing waves are produced in a string $16 \ m$ long. If there are $9$ nodes between the two fixed ends of the string and the speed of the wave is $32 \ m/s$,what is the frequency of the wave (in $Hz$)?

The equation of a stationary wave is $y = 0.8 \cos \left( \frac{\pi x}{20} \right) \sin (200 \pi t)$,where $x$ is in $cm$ and $t$ is in $sec$. The separation between consecutive nodes will be .... $cm$.

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 $cm$)
