A pipe open at both ends produces a note of frequency $f_1$. When the pipe is kept with $\frac{3}{4}$th of its length it water, it produced a note of frequency $f_2$. The ratio $\frac{{{f_1}}}{{{f_2}}}$ is
An organ pipe ${P_1}$ closed at one end vibrating in its first overtone and another pipe ${P_2}$ open at both ends vibrating in its third overtone are in resonance with a given tuning fork. The ratio of lengths of ${P_1}$ and ${P_2}$ is
The sound intensity level at a point $4 \,m$ from the point source is $10 \,dB$, then the sound level at a distance $2 \,m$ from the same source will be ........ $dB$
$Assertion :$ When a beetle moves along the sand within a few tens of centimeters of a sand scorpion, the scorpion immediately turns towards the beetle and dashes towards it
$Reason :$ When a beetle disturbs the sand, it sends pulses along the sand's surface. One set of pulses is longitudinal while the other set is transverse.
A travelling wave pulse is given by $y=\frac{4}{3 x^2+48 t^2+24 x t+2}$ where $x$ and $y$ are in metre and $t$ is in second. The velocity of wave is ........... $m / s$
Two cars are moving on two perpendicular roads towards a crossing with uniform speeds of $72\; km/hr$ and $36\; km/hr$. If first car blows horn of frequency $280\; Hz,$ then the frequency of horn heard by the driver of second car when line joining the cars make $45^o$ angle with the roads; will be .... $Hz$
A tuning fork vibrating with a sonometer having a wire of length $20 \,cm$ produces $5$ beats per second. The beats frequency does not change if the length of the wire is changed to $21 \,cm$. The frequency of the tuning fork must be ............ $Hz$
