A $20 \mathrm{~cm}$ long string, having a mass of $1.0 \mathrm{~g}$, is fixed at both the ends. The tension in the string is $0.5 \mathrm{~N}$. The string is set into vibrations using an external vibrator of frequency $100 \mathrm{~Hz}$. Find the separation (in $cm$) between the successive nodes on the string.
