A wire of length \(2L\) is formed by joining two wires, \(A\) and \(B,\) each of the same length but with different radii, \(r\) and \(2r,\) respectively, and made of the same material. The wire vibrates at a frequency such that the joint between the two wires forms a node. If the number of antinodes in wire \(A\) is \(p\) and in wire \(B\) is \(q,\) the ratio \(p:q\) is:

1. \(3:5\) 2. \(4:9\)
3. \(1:2\) 4. \(1:4\)
