The equation of a progressive wave can be given by $$y = 15\sin (660\pi t - 0.02\pi x)$$ cm. The frequency of the wave is
A hollow cylinder with both sides open generates a frequency f in air. When the cylinder vertically immersed into water by half its length the frequency will be
Two stretched strings have lengths l and 2l while tensions are T and 4T respectively. If they are made of same material the ratio of their frequency is
When sound is produced in an aeroplane with a velocity of 200 m/s horizontally its echo is heard after $$10\sqrt 5 $$ seconds. If velocity of sound in air is 300 ms$$-$$1 the elevation of aircraft is
Two turning forks of frequencies n1 and n2 produces n beats per second. If n2 and n are known, n1 may be given by
A car moving with a velocity of 36 km/hr crosses a siren of frequency 500 Hz. The apparent frequency of siren after passing it will be
Longitudinal waves cannot
The displacement of a plane progressive wave in a medium, travelling towards positive x-axis with velocity 4 m/s at t = 0 is given by $$y = 3\sin 2\pi \left( { - {x \over 3}} \right)$$. Then the expression for the displacement at a later time t = 4 sec will be
