When the string is stretched between two rigid supports, under certain tension and vibrated (a) antinodes at both ends and at least one node in between (b) Nodes at both ends and at least one antinode in between (c) Nodes at both ends and no antinode in between (d) antinodes at both ends and no node in between

Answer: (b). Rigid supports cannot move, so both ends are nodes. Even the fundamental mode has one antinode in the middle. So the answer is (b).
