An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound, with a velocity one-fifth of the velocity of sound. What is the percentage increase in the apparent frequency ?

The displacement $$y$$ of a particle in a medium can be expressed as, $$y = {10^{ - 6}}\,\sin $$ $$\left( {100t + 20x + {\pi \over 4}} \right)$$ $$m$$ where $$t$$ is in second and $$x$$ in meter. The speed of the wave is

A metal wire of linear mass density of $$9.8$$ $$g/m$$ is stretched with a tension of $$10$$ $$kg$$-$$wt$$ between two rigid supports $$1$$ metre apart. The wire passes at its middle point between the poles of a permanent magnet, and it vibrates in resonance when carrying an alternating current of frequency $$n.$$ The frequency $$n$$ of the alternating source is

The displacement $$y$$ of a wave travelling in the $$x$$-direction is given by $$$y = {10^{ - 4}}\,\sin \left( {600t - 2x + {\pi \over 3}} \right)\,\,metres$$$
where $$x$$ is expressed in metres and $$t$$ in seconds. The speed of the wave - motion, in $$m{s^{ - 1}}$$, is
