In a Resonance -Coulmn lab experiment to measure the velocity of sound, the first  resonance is obtained at a length $l_1$ and the second resonance at a length $l_2$. Then-
  • A$l_2 > 3l_1$
  • B$l_2 = 3l_1$
  • C$l_2 < 3l_1$
  • D
    may be any of the above, depending on the frequency of the tuning fork used.

    Three musicians experiment with the Doppler effect. Musician $A$ rides in a car at a speed $u$ directly away from musician $B$ who is stationary. Musician $C$ rides in a car directly toward $B$ and travels at the same speed as $A$ . Musician $A$ plays a note at frequency $f_A$ on his trumpet $B$ hears the note, adjusts his trumpet, and plays the same note he heard. Choose the incorrect statement

    Statement $-1$ : Due to the motion of listener, the frequency of the sound waves (as received by listener) emitted by stationary source is affected.

    Statement $-2$ : Due to the motion of source, wavelength of the sound waves (emitted by source) as received by stationary listener is affected.

    Statement $-3$ : If receiver and source both are moving, the observed frequency must be different from the original frequency of source.

    Treat motion of source or listener as always along a line joining them for all above cases.
