The equation of a stationary wave is $Y = 10 \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{4} \right) \cos (20 \pi t)$. The distance between two consecutive nodes in metres is

Two progressive waves $Y_{1} = \sin 2\pi(\frac{t}{0.4} - \frac{x}{4})$ and $Y_{2} = \sin 2\pi(\frac{t}{0.4} + \frac{x}{4})$ superpose to form a standing wave. $x, Y_{1}$ and $Y_{2}$ are in $SI$ units.
