In a closed organ pipe, the frequency of fundamental note is $30 \mathrm{~Hz}$. A certain amount of water is now poured in the organ pipe so that the fundamental frequency is increased to $110 \mathrm{~Hz}$. If the organ pipe has a cross-sectional area of $2 \mathrm{~cm}^2$, the amount of water poured in the organ tube is _____________$g.$ (Take speed of sound in air is $330 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ )
A perfectly elastic uniform string is suspended vertically with its upper end fixed to the ceiling and the lower end loaded with the weight. If a transverse wave is imparted to the lower end of the string, the pulse will
A wave represented by the equation $y_1 = a\,cos(Kx-\omega t)$ is superimposed with another wave to form a stationary wave such that the point $x = 0$ is a node. The equation for the other wave is
A police car horn emits a sound at a frequency $240 Hz$ when the car is at rest. If the speed of the sound is $330 m/s$, the frequency heard by an observer who is approaching the car at a speed of $11 m/s,$ is ... $Hz$
In a closed organ pipe of length $105 \,cm$, standing waves are set up corresponding to third overtone. What distance from the closed end, a pressure node is formed .............. $cm$
A train blowing a whistle of frequency $320\,Hz$ approaches an observer standing on the platform at a speed of $66\,m / s$. The frequency observed by the observer will be (given speed of sound $=330\,ms ^{-1}$ ) $.............Hz$.
A tuning fork is used to produce resonance in a glass tube. The length of the air column in this tube can be adjusted by a variable piston. At room temperature of $27\,^o C$ two successive resonances are produced at $20\, cm$ and $73\, cm$ of column length. If the frequency of the tuning fork is $320\, Hz,$ the velocity of sound in air at $27\,^o C$ is .... $m/s$
