The fundamental frequency of an open organ pipe is $$600 \mathrm{~Hz}$$. The first overtone of this pipe has same frequency as first overtone of a closed organ pipe. If speed of sound is $$330 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$$, then the length of a closed organ pipe is
The wavelength of two waves are 40 and $$42 \mathrm{~cm}$$ respectively. If the temperature of the room is $$20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$ then what will be the number of beats produced per second by these waves. When the speed of sound at $$0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$ is $$332 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$$ ?
When a string is divided into four segments of $$l_1, l_2, l_3$$ and $$l_4$$. The fundamental frequencies of these three segments are $$v_1, v_2, v_3$$ and $$v_4$$, respectively. The original fundamental frequency $$(v)$$ of the string is
In a resonance coloum first and second resonance are obtained at depths 24 cm and 78 cm the third resonance will be obtained at depth.
A submarine A travelling at 17 m/s is being chased along the line of its velocity by another submarine B travelling at 34 m/s. B sends a sonar signal of 600 Hz to detect A and receives a reflected sound of frequency $$\nu$$. The of $$\nu$$ is
[Speed of sound in water = 1500 ms$$-$$1]
Transverse waves of the same frequency are generated in two steel wires A and B. The diameter of A is twice that of B and the tension in A is half that in B. The ratio of the velocities of the waves in A and B is
In the diagram shown below, both the strings AB and CD are made of same material and have same cross-section. The pulleys are light and fictionless. If the speed of wave in string AB is v1 and in CD is v2, then $${{{v_1}} \over {{v_2}}}$$ is
The equation of progressive wave is given by $$Y = \sin \left[ {x\left( {{t \over 5} - {x \over 9}} \right) + {\pi \over 6}} \right]$$ cm. Which one of the following is correct?
Two cars approach a stationary observer from opposite sides as shown in the figure.
The observer hears no beats. If the frequency of the horn of the car B is 504 Hz, then the frequency of the horn of the car A will be
The vibrations of a string of length 60 cm fixed at both ends are represented by the equation
$$y = 4\sin \left( {{{\pi x} \over {15}}} \right)\cos (96\pi t)$$
where x and y are in cm and t is in second. Calculate the velocity of the particle at x = 7.5 cm at t = 0.25 s.
