A whistle revolves in a circle with an angular speed of $20\; rad/sec$ using a string of length $50 \;cm.$ If the frequency of sound from the whistle is $385\; Hz,$ then what is the minimum frequency heard by an observer, which is far away from the centre in the same plane ... $Hz$ ? ($v = 340 \;m/s$)
The transverse displacement $y (x, t)$ of a wave on a string is given by $y\left( {x,t} \right) = {e^{ - \left( {a{x^2} + b{t^2} + 2\sqrt {ab} \;xt} \right)}}$ .This represents a
The equation of a wave disturbance is given as : $y = 0.02 cos \left( {\frac{\pi }{2} + 50\pi t} \right) cos (10 x),$ where $x$ and $y$ are in meters and $t$ in seconds. Choose the wrong statement:
In a city sound intensity level increases uniformly by about $1\ dB$ annually. How many years will it take for intensity of sound to become double ..... $year$
A copper wire is held at the two ends by rigid supports. At $50^{\circ} C$ the wire is just taut, with negligible tension. If $Y=1.2 \times 10^{11} \,N / m ^2, \alpha=1.6 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and $\rho=9.2 \times 10^3 \,kg / m ^3$, then the speed of transverse waves in this wire at $30^{\circ} C$ is .......... $m / s$
Equation of a progressive wave is given by $y = 4\sin \left\{ {\pi \left( {\frac{t}{5} - \frac{x}{9}} \right) + \frac{\pi }{6}} \right\}$. Then which of the following is correct
