d $v = \frac{{\sin i}}{{\sin r}} = \frac{{{v_1}}}{{{v_2}}}$
$\sin r = \sin 30^\circ \times \frac{{2u}}{u} $
$\Rightarrow \sin r = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times 1$
$ \Rightarrow r = 90^\circ $

A transverse wave is represented by the equation $y = {y_0}\sin \frac{{2\pi }}{\lambda }(vt - x)$ For what value of $\lambda$, the maximum particle velocity equal to two times the wave velocity
A certain string will resonant to several frequencies, the lowest of which is $200 \,cps$. What are the next three higher frequencies to which it resonants?
The displacement of a particle is given by $y = 5 \times {10^{ - 4}}\sin (100t - 50x)$, where $x$ is in meter and $t$ in sec, find out the velocity of the wave .... $m/sec$
A wire of $10^{-2} kgm^{-1}$ passes over a frictionless light pulley fixed on the top of a frictionless inclined plane which makes an angle of $30^o$ with the horizontal. Masses $m$ and $M$ are tied at two ends of wire such that m rests on the plane and $M$ hangs freely vertically downwards. The entire system is in equilibrium and a transverse wave propagates along the wire with a velocity of $100 ms^{^{-1}}$.
A pipe $17\, cm$ long is closed at one end. Which harmonic mode of the pipe resonates a $1.5\, kHz$ source ?
(Speed of sound in air $= 340\, m\, s^{-1}$)
A uniform string resonates with a tuning fork, at a maximum tension of $32 \,N$. If it is divided into two segments by placing a wedge at a distance one-fourth of length from one end, then to resonance with same frequency the maximum value of tension for string will be ........... $N$
Two passenger trains moving with a speed of $108\, km/hour$ cross each other. One of them blows a whistle whose frequency is $750 Hz.$ If sound speed is $330 m/s,$ then passengers sitting in the other train, after trains cross each other will hear sound whose frequency will be .... $Hz$
On producing the waves of frequency $1000 Hz$ in a Kundt's tube, the total distance between $6$ successive nodes is $ 85 cm.$ Speed of sound in the gas filled in the tube is ..... $m/s$
