The equation of a wave motion (with $t$ in seconds and $x$ in metres) is given by $y = 7\sin \,\left[ {7\pi t - 0.4\pi x + \frac{\pi }{3}} \right]$. The velocity of the wave will be
The ratio of maximum to minimum intensity due to superposition of two waves is $\frac{{49}}{9}$ Then the ratio of the intensity of component waves is .
A sound wave of frequency $245 \,Hz$ travels with the speed of $300\, ms ^{-1}$ along the positive $x$-axis. Each point of the wave moves to and fro through a total distance of $6 \,cm$. What will be the mathematical expression of this travelling wave ?
A standing wave pattern of amplitude $A$ in a string of length $L$ shows $2$ nodes (plus those at two ends). If one end of the string corresponds to the origin and $v$ is the speed of progressive wave, the disturbance in the string, could be represented (with appropriate phase) as:
A tuning fork of known frequency $256\,Hz$ makes $5$ beats per second with the vibrating string of a piano. The beat frequency decreases to $2$ beats per second when the tension in the piano string is slightly increased. The frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension was
The tension of a stretched string is increased by $69\%$. In order to keep its frequency of vibration constant, its length must be increased by ..... $\%$
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 number of beats is still the same. The frequency of the fork is
$25$ tunning forks are arranged in series in the order of decreasing frequency. Any two successive forks produce $3\, beats/sec.$ If the frequency of the first turning fork is the octave of the last fork, then the frequency of the $21^{st}$ fork is .... $Hz$
