Consider a system of three connected strings, S1S_1, S2S_2 and S3S_3 with uniform linear mass densities μ\mu kg/m, 4μ4\mu kg/m and 16μ16\mu kg/m, respectively, as shown in the figure. S1S_1 and S2S_2 are connected at the point PP, whereas S2S_2 and S3S_3 are connected at the point QQ, and the other end of S3S_3 is connected to a wall. A wave generator OO is connected to the free end of S1S_1. The wave from the generator is represented by y=y0cos⁡(ωt−kx)y = y_0 \cos(\omega t - kx) cm, where y0y_0, ω\omega and kk are constants of appropriate dimensions. Which of the following statements is/are correct: ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/diraq-contents/PROD/homework-question-parsing/marker/10cfc674d058403d90cf32e964687c8e/0e240e8e4783e664047fbdb5fbd0989f_img.jpg)
