$A$ wave of frequency $100 \, Hz$ is sent along a string towards a fixed end. When this wave travels back after reflection,a node is formed at a distance of $10 \, cm$ from the fixed end of the string. The speed of the incident (and reflected) wave is .... $m/s$.

  • A
    $40$
  • B
    $20$
  • C
    $10$
  • D
    $5$
