A wave of frequency $100 Hz$ is sent along a string towards a fixed end. When this wave travels back after reflection, a node is formed at a distance of $10 cm$ from the fixed end of the string. The speed of incident (and reflected) wave are .... $m/s$

b (b) At fixed end node is formed and distance between two consecutive nodes $\Rightarrow$ $\frac{\lambda }{2} = 10$$cm$
$ \Rightarrow $$\lambda = 20$$cm$
$ \Rightarrow $ $v = n\lambda = 20\,m/sec$

The particles of a medium vibrate about their mean positions whenever a wave travels through that medium. The phase difference between the vibrations of two such particles
It takes $2.0$ seconds for a sound wave to travel between two fixed points when the day temperature is ${10^o}C.$ If the temperature rise to ${30^o}C$ the sound wave travels between the same fixed parts in ...... $sec$
Two cars moving in opposite directions approach each other with speed of $22\, m s^{-1}$ and $16.5 \, m s^{-1}$ respectively. The driver of the first car blows a horn having a frequency $400 \,Hz.$ The frequency heard by the driver of the second car is ..... $Hz$ (velocity of sound is $340 \, m s^{-1}$)
Two open organ pipes of fundamental frequencies $n_{1}$ and $n_{2}$ are joined in series. The fundamental frequecny of the new pipe so obtained will be
When a source of sound crosses a stationary observer then the change in apparent frequency of sound observed by the observer, when $V_{ s } < < V$, will be -
A tuning fork of frequency $340\, Hz$ is vibrated just above the tube of $120\, cm$ height. Water is poured slowly in the tube. What is the minimum height of water necessary for the resonance ... $cm$ ? (speed of sound in air $= 340\, m/s$)
A wire of length $2\,L$ is made by joining two wires $A$ and $B$ of same lengths but different radii $r$ and $2r$ and made of the same material. It is vibrating at a frequency such that the joint of the two wires forms a node. If the number of antinodes in wire $A$ is $p$ and that in $B$ is $q$ then the ratio $p : q$ is
