Explanation

$ \nu = \sqrt { \gamma P \over \rho } = \sqrt { \gamma RT \over M} $ $ \therefore { \nu_2 \over \nu_1 } = \sqrt { { \gamma_{He} \over 4 } \times { 32 \over \gamma_{02} } }$

Explanation

In a longitudinal wave, pressure is maximum where displacement is minimum. Therefore pressure and displacement variations are $180 ^\circ $ out of phase

A tuning fork of frequency 480 hz produces 10 beats/s when sounded with a vibrating sonometer string. What must have been the frequency of the string if a slight increase in tension produces fewer beats per second than before?

Explanation

Frequency of tuning fork $f_1= 480 Hz$. Number of beats $s^{-1}$, n = 10 Frequency of string $f_2 = (480 + 10)Hz$. Aslight increase in tension increase $f_2$. $f_2 = 480 - 10 = 470 Hz.$

Explanation

As $sin(90 \pm \theta ) = cos \theta $ The phase difference between the two waves is $ \pi /2 $

Explanation

$ \nu = \sqrt T = \sqrt { 500 \over 0.2 } = 50 ms^{-1} $

Explanation

$ Here , \rho_1 = \rho_2 , { r_1 \over r_2 } = {1 \over 2 } , T_1 = T_2 $ $ f_1 = { 1 \over 2lr_1 } \sqrt { T_1 \over \pi \rho_1 } , f_2 = { 1 \over 2lr_2 } \sqrt { T_2 \over \pi \rho_2 } , $ $ \therefore { f_1 \over f_2 } = {r_1 \over r_2 } = { 2 \over 1 } $

Explanation

$ { f_2 \over f_1 } = sqrt { T_2 \over T_1 } = \sqrt { 81 \over 100 } = { 9 \over 10 } $ $ \therefore { f_1 - f_2 \over f_1 } \times 100 = 10 \%$

An open organ pipe has fundamental frequency 100 hz. What frequency will be produced if its one end is closed?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

When one end is closed $f_1 = {100 \over 2 } = 50 Hz $ $ f_2 = 3f_1 =150 Hz , f_3 = 5f_1 =250Hz and so on...$

A closed organ pipe has fundamental frequency 100 hz. What frequencies will be produced if its other end is also opened?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

When other end of pipe is opened, its fundamental frequency becomes 200Hz. The overtone have frequencies 400, 600, 800 Hz..

Explanation

$ As , { l_2 \over 2l }= { l_2' \over l_1'} \Rightarrow { 60 \over 40 } = { l_2' \over 50 } = l_2' = 75cm $
