b In general, the length of string is $L = \frac{{(n - 1)\lambda }}{2}$ $n \to $ Number of loops $= $ Number of harmonics in question $n = 4 \,;\, \lambda = 10\, cm$
$L = (4 - 1) \times \frac{{10}}{2} = 15\,cm$

A string under a tension of $129.6\,\, N$ produces $10\,\, beats /sec$ when it is vibrated along with a tuning fork. When the tension is the string is increased to $160\,\, N,$ it sounds in unison with same tuning fork. calculate fundamental freq. of tuning fork .... $Hz$
When two tuning forks (fork $1$ and fork $2$ ) are sounded together, $4$ beats per second are heard. Now some tape is attached on the prong of the fork $2$. When the tuning forks are sounded again, $6$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $1$ is $200 \,Hz$, then the original frequency of fork $2$ is ........... $Hz$
A standing wave pattern is formed on a string. One of the waves is given by equation ${y_1} = a\,\cos \,\left( {\omega t - kx + \pi /3} \right)$ then the equation of the other wave such that at $x = 0$ a node is formed
In resonance tube two successive positions of resonance are obtained at $15 \,cm$ and $48 \,cm$. If the frequency of the fork is $500 \,cps$, the velocity of sound is ......... $m / s$
A sound source of frequency $170 Hz$ is placed near a wall. A man walking from a source towards the wall finds that there is a periodic rise and fall of sound intensity. If the speed of sound in air is $340\, m/s$ the distance (in metres) separating the two adjacent positions of minimum intensity is
A person feels $2.5\%$ difference of frequency of a motor-car horn. If the motor-car is moving to the person and the velocity of sound is $320\, m/sec,$ then the velocity of car will be
A submarine $(A)$ travelling at $18\, km/hr$ is being chased along the line of its velocity by another submarine $(B)$ travelling at $27\, km/hr$. $B$ sends a sonar signal of $500\, Hz$ to detect $A$ and receives a reflected sound of frequency $v$. The value of $v$ is close to ... $Hz$ (Speed of sound in water $= 1500\, ms^{-1}$)
