b (b) The human ear responds to sounds with frequencies in the range from $20 \mathrm{Hz}$ to $20000 \mathrm{Hz}$. This is called the audible range of the human ear.
Thus, the frequency range of audible sound is $20 \mathrm{H} z$ to $20000 \mathrm{Hz}$.

Two sitar strings $A$ and $B$ playing the note $'Ga'$ are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency $6\,Hz$ . The tension in the string $A$ is slightly reduced and the beat frequency is found to reduce to $3\,Hz$. If the original frequency of $A$ is $324\,Hz$, what is the frequency of $B$ ..... $Hz$
A transverse wave is travelling along a stretched string from right to left. The figure shown represents the shape of the string at a given instant. At this instant
A tuning fork of known frequency $256\,Hz$ makes $5$ beats per second with the vibrating string of a piano. The beat frequency decreases to $2$ beats per second when the tension in the piano string is slightly increased. The frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension was
If the speed of the wave shown in the figure is $330m/s$ in the given medium, then the equation of the wave propagating in the positive $x-$direction will be (all quantities are in $M.K.S.$ units)
The equation of wave is given by $Y=10^{-2} \sin 2 \pi\left(160 t-0.5 x+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)$ Where $x$ and $Y$ are in $m$ and $t$ in $s$. The speed of the wave is $.....\,km h ^{-1}$
Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed $1.0 m s ^{-1}$ and the man behind walks at a speed $2.0 ms ^{-1}$. A third man is standing at a height $12 m$ above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency $1430 Hz$. The speed of sound in air is $330 m s ^{-1}$. At the instant, when the moving men are $10 m$ apart, the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in $Hz$, heard by the stationary man at this instant, is. . . . .
