A string of length 70 cmis stretched between two rigid supports. The resonant frequency for this string is found to be 420 hz and 315 hz. If there are no resonant frequencies between these two values, thenwhat would be the minimum resonant frequency of this string?

Explanation

Let the number of loops obtained for 315Hz and 420Hz n and (n+1) respectively. $ \therefore f_n = nf_1 = 315 $ $ \therefore f_{n+1} = (n+1) f_1 = 420 $ $ \therefore f_{n+1} - f_n = f_1 =105 Hz $

Sound waves propagates with a speed of 350 m/s through air and with a speed of 3500 m/s through brass. If a sound wave having frequency 700 hz passes from air to brass, then its wavelength ………….

Explanation

When, sound waves travel from one medium to another, its frequency does not change. $ \therefore f = { \nu \over \lambda } = constant $ $ \therefore { \nu_a \over \lambda_a} = { \nu_b \over \lambda_b } $ $ \lambda_b = { \nu_b \over \nu_a } \lambda_a = 10 \lambda_a $

A transverse wave is represented by y = ASin (ùt-kx). For what value of its wavelength will the wave velocity be equal to the maximum velocity of the particle taking part in the wave propagation?

Explanation

Wave velocity = max. velo.of particle $ { \omega \over k } = A \omega $ $ \therefore A = { 1 \over k } = { \lambda \over 2 \pi } $ $ \therefore \lambda = 2 \pi A $

Two monoatomic ideal gases 1 and 2 has molecular weights m1 and m2. Both are kept in two different containers at the same temperature. The ratio of velocity of sound wave in gas 1 and 2 is ……….

Explanation

Speed of sound in an ideal gas $ \nu = sqrt { \gamma RT \over m } $ $ \therefore { \nu_1 \over \nu_2 } = \sqrt { m_2 \over m_1 } \left ( \therefore v { 1 \over \sqrt m } \right) $

A wire having length L is kept under tension between x = 0 and x = L. In one experiment, the equation of the wave and energy is given by $ y_1 = A sin \left( { \pi x \over L } \right) sin 2 ut $ and $ E_2 $ then

Explanation

$ E = { 1 \over 2 } m \omega^2 A^2 = {1 \over 2 } m 4 \pi^2 f^2 A^2 $ $ \therefore E \alpha f^2 \Rightarrow { E_1 \over E_2 } = \left( { f_1 \over f_2 } \right)^2 = \left( { f \over 2 f } \right)^2 = { 1 \over 4 } \therefore E_2 = 4 E_1 $

Twenty four tuning forks are arranged in such a way that each fork produces 6 beats/s with the preceding fork. If the frequency of the last tuning fork is double than the first fork, then the frequency of the second tuning fork is ………

Explanation

Let hte freq. of 1st fork be $f_1$ $ \therefore frequency of 2nd fork = f_1 + 6 = f_1 + 6 (2 -1 ) $ $ \therefore freq. of th 24th fork = f_1 + 6(24 -1 )=f_1 + 138$ Now, freq. of 24th fork = 2 x freq. of 1st fork (given) $ \therefore f_1 + 138 = 2 f_1 \therefore f_1 = 138 Hz $

The wave number for a wave having wavelength 0.005 m is…….$m^{– 1}$ .

Explanation

$ wave number = { 1 \over \lambda } = { 1 \over 0.005 } = 200 m^{-1} $

An listener is moving towards a stationary source of sound with a speed 1/4 times the speed of sound. What will be the percentage increase in the frequency of sound heard by the listener?

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

Frequency heard by the listener $ f_L = \left ( { \nu + \nu_L \over \nu } \right) f_s $ $ ( \therefore \nu_s = 0 ) $ $ \therefore { f_L \over f_s } = { \nu + \nu_2 \over \nu } = { \nu + { \nu \over 4 } \over \nu } = { 5 \over 4 } $ $ \therefore \% increase = { f_L - f_s \over f_s } \times 100 = \left( { 5 - 4 \over 4 } \right) \times 100 = 25 \% $

When the resonance tube experiment, to measure speed of sound is performed in winter, the first harmonic is obtained for 16 cm length of air column. If the same experiment is performed in summer, the second harmonic is obtained for x length of air column. Then

Explanation

$ From \nu = \sqrt { \gamma RT \over M } , \nu \alpha \sqrt T $ In summer, velocity increases & hence decreases and so L increases. The length of 2nd halmonics $ x = 3L_1 = 3 \times 16 = 48 cm $ In summer, velocity being more, $ x \gt 3L_1$ $ \therefore x \gt 48 $

What should be the speed of a source of sound moving towards a stationary listener, so that the frequency of sound heard by the listener is double the frequency of sound produced by the source? { Speed of sound wave is v }

Explanation

$ In f_L = \left( { \nu + \nu_L \over \nu + \nu_s } \right) f_s $ $ putting \nu_L = 0 , f_L = 2 f_s , \nu = \nu, \nu_s = - \nu_s $ $ 2 f_s = \left( { \nu \over \nu - \nu_s } \right) f_s \Rightarrow 2 \nu_s = \nu \therefore \nu_s = { \nu \over 2 } $
