Solution

The correct option is D λ/4
The wavelength of a wave is defined as twice the distance between 2 consecutive nodes and antinodes.

Now, the distance between an antinode and a node is 1/2 the distance between 2 consecutive nodes.

Therefore, λ=2(2× distance between a node and an antinode)

Hence, the required distance is λ/4
