MCQ
Find the frequency of minimum distance between compression & rarefaction of a wire. If the length of the wire is $1m$ & velocity of sound in air is $360\, m/s$ .... $sec^{-1}$
- ✓$90$
- B$180$
- C$120$
- D$360$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$90$
a
(a) The minimum distance between compression and rarefaction of the wire
(a) The minimum distance between compression and rarefaction of the wire
$l = \frac{\lambda }{4}$
$\therefore $ Wave length $\lambda = 4l$
Now by $v = n\lambda \Rightarrow n = \frac{{360}}{{4 \times 1}} = 90\,{\sec ^{ - 1}}.$
