In a stationary wave all the particles
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
In the region between two nodes vibrate in same phase
Option B (In the region between two nodes vibrate in same phase) is correct because in a stationary wave, particles between two consecutive nodes vibrate in the same phase, while particles in adjacent segments vibrate in opposite phases.
