Consider the following sound waves marked $A, B, C$ and $D:$
Which two waves represent sounds of the same loudness but different pitch$?$
Which two waves represent sounds of the same frequency but different loudness?
State whether all these sound waves have been produced by the same vibrating body or different vibrating bodies?
Which vibrating body/bodies could have generated the sound waves shown here?

$A$ and $D$ waves represent sounds of the same loudness but different pitch as both of them have same amplitude but different frequency.
$B$ and $D$ waves represent sounds of same frequency but different loudness as both have same frequency but different amplitude.
Same vibrating body can produce all the given sound waves.
Tuning fork is a device that can produce sound waves of different frequencies and amplitudes. Therefore, all these sound waves can be generated by a tuning fork.

A sound producing body is at considerable distance from a man. There can be four different media $W, X, Y$ and $Z$ between the sound producing body and the man. The medium $X$ brings the sound to man most quickly whereas medium $Z$ takes the maximum time. The time taken by medium $W$ in bringing sound to man is less than that of $X$ but more than that of $Z.$ The medium $Y,$ however, fails to bring the sound from the sound producing body to the man. Which medium could be the one:
Having no fixed shape and no fixed volume$?$
Having a fixed volume but no fixed shape$?$
Having the same composition as that on the moon$?$
Three different vibrating objects produce three types of sounds $X$, $Y$ and $Z$. Sounds $X$ and $Y$ cannot be heard by a man having normal range of hearing but sound $Z$ can be heard easily. The sound $X$ is used in hospitals to break kidney stones of a patient into fine grains whioch then get flushed out with urine. The sound $Y$ is similar to that which is produced during an earthquake before the main shock wave is generated.
What t$Y$pe of sounds are $(i) X, (ii) Y$, and $(iii) Z$?
Name one device which can produce sound like $X$.
Name one device in a science laboratory which can produce sound like $Y$.
Name one device in our homes which can produce sound like $Z$.
In an experiment, Anhad studies sound waves. He sets up a loudspeaker to produce sound as shown below:
Anhad adjusts the signal to the loudspeaker to give a sound of frequency 200Hz.
What happens to the air in-between Anhas and the loudspeaker?
