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 ?

When two tuning forks (fork $$1$$ and fork $$2$$) are sounded simultaneously, $$4$$ beats per second are heated. Now, some tape is attached on the prong of the fork $$2.$$ When the tuning forks are sounded again, $$6$$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $$1$$ is $$200$$ $$Hz$$, then what was the original frequency of fork $$2$$ ?

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 tuning fork of known frequency $$256$$ $$Hz$$ makes $$5$$ beats per second with the vibrating string of a piano. The beat frequency decreases to $$2$$ beats per second when the tension in the piano string is slightly increased. The frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension was
