A string of length $$25 \mathrm{~cm}$$ and mass $$10^{-3} \mathrm{~kg}$$ is clamped at its ends. The tension in the string is $$2.5 \mathrm{~N}$$. The identical wave pulses are generated at one end and at regular interval of time, $$\Delta \mathrm{t}$$. The minimum value of $$\Delta \mathrm{t}$$, so that a constructive interference takes place between successive pulses is

A source of sound emits sound waves at frequency $$f_0$$. It is moving towards an observer with fixed speed $${v_s}$$ ($${v_s},v$$, where $$v$$ is the speed of sound in air.) If the observers were to move towards the source with speed $$v_0$$, one of the following two graphs (A and B) will give the correct variation of the frequency $$f$$ heard by the observer as $$v_0$$ is changed.
