A string is vibrating in its third harmonic. Which of the following best describes the spatial arrangement of nodes and antinodes along the string? a) Nodes are separated by a distance 2L3\dfrac{2L}{3}, and each antinode lies halfway between two successive nodes. b) Nodes are separated by a distance L2\dfrac{L}{2}, and antinodes occur midway between successive nodes. c) Nodes are separated by a distance L3\dfrac{L}{3}, and each antinode lies halfway between two successive nodes. d) Nodes are separated by a distance L3\dfrac{L}{3}, and antinodes are located at the fixed ends of the string.
