Q. If a stretched wire is vibrating in the second overtone, then the number of nodes and antinodes between the ends of the string are respectively

Solution:

For third harmonic second overtone

So, the number of nodes $=4 \,N$
and the number of antinodes $=3\, A$
NOTE Ambiguous statement in question. Our solution considers the end nodes also.
