A student is performing an experiment using a resonance column and a tuning fork of frequency $244 s ^{-1}$. He is told that the air in the tube has been replaced by another gas (assume that the column remains filled with the gas). If the minimum height at which resonance occurs is $(0.350 \pm 0.005) m$, the gas in the tube is
(Useful information) : $\sqrt{167 R T}=640 j^{1 / 2} mole ^{-1 / 2} ; \sqrt{140 RT }=590 j ^{1 / 2} mole ^{-1 / 2}$. The molar masses $M$ in grams are given in the options. Take the value of $\sqrt{\frac{10}{ M }}$ for each gas as given there.)

The ends of a stretched wire of length $L$ are fixed at $x = 0$ and $x = L.$ In one experiment, the displacement of the wire is ${y_1} = A\sin (\pi x/L)\sin \omega t$ and energy is ${E_1}$, and in another experiment its displacement is ${y_2} = A\sin (2\pi x/L)\sin 2\omega t$ and energy is ${E_2}$. Then
The fundamental frequency of vibration of a string stretched between two rigid support is $50\,Hz$. The mass of the string is $18\,g$ and its linear mass density is $20\,g / m$. The speed of the transverse waves so produced in the string is $..........\,ms ^{-1}$
An organ pipe open at one end is vibrating in first overtone and is in resonance with another pipe open at both ends and vibrating in third harmonic. The ratio of length of two pipes is
Which of the following is not true for this progressive wave $y = 4\sin 2\pi \left( {\frac{t}{{0.02}} - \frac{x}{{100}}} \right)$ where $y$ and $x$ are in $cm$ & $t$ in $sec$
An organ pipe $40\,cm$ long is open at both ends. The speed of sound in air is $360\,ms ^{-1}$. The frequency of the second harmonic is $...........\,Hz$.
${v_1}$ and ${v_2}$ are the velocities of sound at the same temperature in two monoatomic gases of densities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ respectively. If $\frac{\rho _1}{\rho _2} = \frac{1}{4}$ then the ratio of velocities ${v_1}$ and ${v_2}$ will be
A whistle sends out $256$ waves in a second. If the whistle approaches the observer with velocity $\frac{1}{3}$ of the velocity of sound in air, the number of waves per second the observer will receive
Speed of a transverse wave on a straight wire (mass $6.0\; \mathrm{g}$, length $60\; \mathrm{cm}$ and area of cross-section $1.0\; \mathrm{mm}^{2}$ ) is $90\; \mathrm{ms}^{-1} .$ If the Young's modulus of wire is $16 \times 10^{11}\; \mathrm{Nm}^{-2},$ the extension of wire over its natural length is
