$(A)$ With a node at $O$, the minimum frequency of vibration of the composite string is $v_0$
$(B)$ With an antinode at $O$, the minimum frequency of vibration of the composite string is $2 v_0$
$(C)$ When the composite string vibrates at the minimum frequency with a node at $O$, it has $6$ nodes, including the end nodes
$(D)$ No vibrational mode with an antinode at $O$ is possible for the composite string
($A$) $v_P+v_R=2 v_Q$
($B$) The rate of change in beat frequency is maximum when the car passes through $Q$
