MCQ
A sound source emits sound waves in a uniform medium. If energy density is $E$ and maximum speed of the particles of the medium is ${v_{\max }}.$The plot between $E$ and ${v_{\max }}$ is best represented by
- A
- B
- ✓
- D
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
c
(c)Energy density $(E)$ $ = \frac{I}{v} = 2{\pi ^2}\rho {n^2}{A^2}$
${v_{\max }} = \omega A = 2\pi nA$==> $E \propto {({v_{\max }})^2}$
i.e., graph between $E$ and ${v_{\max }}$ will be a parabola symmetrical about $E$ axis.
(c)Energy density $(E)$ $ = \frac{I}{v} = 2{\pi ^2}\rho {n^2}{A^2}$
${v_{\max }} = \omega A = 2\pi nA$==> $E \propto {({v_{\max }})^2}$
i.e., graph between $E$ and ${v_{\max }}$ will be a parabola symmetrical about $E$ axis.

The ratio of surface tensions of mercury and water is given to be $7.5$ while the ratio of their densities is $13.6$. Their contact angles, with glass, are close to $135^o$ and $0^o$, respectively. It is observed that mercury gets depressed by an amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_1$, while water rises by the same amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_2$. The ratio, $(r_1/r_2)$, is then close to
