A transverse sinusoidal wave moves along a string in the positive $x-$ direction at a speed of $10\, cm/s$. The wavelength of the wave is $0.5\, m$ and its amplitude is $10\, cm$. At a prticular time $t$, the snap-shot of the wave is shown in the figure. the velocity of point $P$ when its displacement is $5\, cm$, is
$v_{p}=\frac{2 \pi}{0.5} \times 0.1 \sqrt{(0.1)^{2}-(0.05)^{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{3} \pi}{50}\hat j m s^{-1}$

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire of length $l$ is $n_0$ . A bridge is now introduced at a distance of $\Delta l ( < < l)$ from the centre of the wire. The lengths of wire on the two sides of the bridge are now vibrated in their fundamental modes. Then, the beat frequency nearly is
It is found that an increase in pressure of $100\, kPa$ causes a certain volume of water to decrease by $5 × 10^{-3}$ percent of its original volume. Then the speed of sound in the water is about .... $m/s$ (density of water $10^3 \,kg/m^3$)
Two loudspeakers $L_1$ and $L_2$ driven by a common oscillator and amplifier, are arranged as shown. The frequency of the oscillator is gradually increased from zero and the detector at $D$ records a series of maxima and minima. If the speed of sound is $330\,ms^{-1}$ then the frequency at which the first maximum is observed is .... $Hz$
Consider ten identical sources of sound all giving the same frequency but having phase angles which are random. If the average intensity of each source is ${I_0}$, the average of resultant intensity $I$ due to all these ten sources will be
A closed organ pipe has a fundamental frequency of $1.5\, kHz$. The number of overtones that can be distinctly heard by a person with this organ pipe will be : (Assume that the highest frequency a person can hear is $20,000\, Hz$)
A string of length $0.4\, m$ and mass ${10^{ - 2}}\,kg$ is tightly clamped at its ends. The tension in the string is $1.6\, N.$ Identical wave pulses are produced at one end at equal intervals of time $\Delta t$. The minimum value of $\Delta t$ which allows constructive interference between successive pulses is .... $s$
Two waves of intensity ratio $1: 9$ cross each other at a point. The resultant intensities at the point, when $I_1(a)$ Waves are incoherent is $I_1(b)$ Waves are coherent is $I_2$ and differ in phase by $60^{\circ}$. If $\frac{I_1}{I_2}=\frac{10}{x}$ than $x$ =. . . . . . . . . . .
