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$I = 100\,{I_0}$
B$I = 10\,{I_0}$
C$I = {I_0}$
D$I = \sqrt {10} \,{I_0}$

B$I = 10\,{I_0}$
b (b) In case of interference of two waves resultant intensity
$I = {I_1} + {I_2} + 2\sqrt {{I_1}{I_2}} \cos \phi $
If $\phi$ varies randomly with time, so

The speed of a wave in a medium is $760\, m/s$. If $3600 $ waves are passing through a point, in the medium in $2$ minutes, then its wavelength is ...... $m$
A train blowing a whistle of frequency $320\,Hz$ approaches an observer standing on the platform at a speed of $66\,m / s$. The frequency observed by the observer will be (given speed of sound $=330\,ms ^{-1}$ ) $.............Hz$.
Two identical piano wires, kept under the same tension $T$ have a fundamental frequency of $600\,\, Hz.$ The fractional increase in the tension of one of the wires which will lead to occurrence of $6\,\, beats/s$ when both the wires oscillate together would be
On a windless day, sound emanate isotropically from a point source. Rays of the sound waves emanated from a point source placed close to ground are shown in the figure. Consider horizontal wind towards the left blowing with constant velocity, which is uniform everywhere. In the following figures, rays of sound waves in presence of the wind are shown. Which one is the most correct representation?
The pattern of standing waves formed on a stretched string at two instants of time (extreme,mean) are shown in figure. The velocity of two waves superimposing to form stationary waves is $360\ ms^{-1}$ and their frequencies are $256\ Hz$. Which is not possible value of $t$ (in $sec$)
The equation of a wave disturbance is given as : $y = 0.02 cos \left( {\frac{\pi }{2} + 50\pi t} \right) cos (10 x),$ where $x$ and $y$ are in meters and $t$ in seconds. Choose the wrong statement:
