A second harmonic has to be generated in a string of length $l$ stretched between two rigid supports. The point where the string has to be plucked and touched are
APlucked at $\frac{l}{4}$ and touch at $\frac{l}{2}$
BPlucked at $\frac{l}{4}$ and touch at $\frac{{3l}}{4}$
CPlucked at $\frac{l}{2}$ and touched at $\frac{l}{4}$
DPlucked at $\frac{l}{2}$ and touched at $\frac{{3l}}{4}$

APlucked at $\frac{l}{4}$ and touch at $\frac{l}{2}$
a (a) Second harmonic means $2$ loops in a total length
Hence plucking distance from one end $ = \frac{l}{{2p}} = \frac{l}{{2 \times 2}} = \frac{l}{4}.$

Two whistles $A$ and $B$ produces notes of frequencies $660 Hz$ and $596 Hz$ respectively. There is a listener at the mid-point of the line joining them. Now the whistle $B$ and the listener start moving with speed $30 m/s$ away from the whistle $A.$ If speed of sound be $330 m/s,$ how many beats will be heard by the listener
Two engines pass each other moving in opposite directions with uniform speed of $30\,m/s$ . One of them is blowing a whistle of frequency $540\,Hz.$ Calculate the frequency heard by driver of second engine before they pass each other ... $Hz$. Speed of sound is $330\,m/sec$
Equation of a progressive wave is given by $y = a\,\sin \pi \,\left[ {\frac{t}{2} - \frac{x}{4}} \right]\,,$ where $t$ is in seconds and $x$ is in meters. The distance through which the wave moves in $8 sec$ is .... $(m)$ (in meter)
Two generators $S_1$ and $S_2$ produce water wave of equal frequency. A point $P$ is located such that $(S_1P -S_2P)$ is equal to half a wavelength. When operated alone, $S_1$ produces an oscillation of amplitude $2a$ at $P$ while $S_2$ produces an oscillation of amplitude $a$ . If the generators are operated in phase, which graph correctly shows the resultant oscillation at $P$ ?
Figure shows a snapshot for a travelling sine wave along a string. Four elemental portions $a, b, c$ and $d$ are indicated on the string. The elemental portion which has maximum potential energy is/are
A person observes two moving trains, '$A$' reaching the station and '$B$' leaving the station with equal speed of $30\,m / s$. If both trains emit sounds with frequency $300\,Hz$, (Speed of sound : $330\,m / s$ ) approximate difference of frequencies heard by the person will be $..........Hz$
A tuning fork gives $4$ beats with $50\, cm$ length of a sonometer wire if the length of the wire is shortened by $1\, cm$. the no. of beats still the same. The frequency of the fork is -............. $\mathrm{Hz}$
Two waves are represented by ${y_1} = a\sin \left( {\omega \,t + \frac{\pi }{6}} \right)$ and ${y_2} = a\cos \omega \,t$. What will be their resultant amplitude
