$A$ wire of length $2L$ is made by joining two wires $A$ and $B$ of same lengths but different radii $r$ and $2r$ and made of the same material. It is vibrating at a frequency such that the joint of the two wires forms a node. If the number of antinodes in wire $A$ is $p$ and that in $B$ is $q$,then the ratio $p : q$ is

  • A
    $1 : 2$
  • B
    $1 : 4$
  • C
    $2 : 1$
  • D
    $4 : 1$
