(a) Suppose the distance between two fixed points is $d$ then

$t = \frac{d}{v}{\rm{\,\,also \,\,}}v \propto \sqrt T $

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{t_1}}}{{{t_2}}} = \frac{{{v_2}}}{{{v_1}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}}} $

==> $\frac{2}{{{t_2}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{303}}{{283}}} $

$ \Rightarrow $${t_2}= 1.9 \,sec.$

    An earthquake generates both transverse $(S)$ and longitudinal $(P)$ sound waves in  the earth. The speed of $S$ waves is about $4.5\,km/s$ and that of $P$ waves is about  $8.0\, km/s$. A seismograph records $P$ and $S$ waves from an earthquake. The first  $P$ wave arrives $4.0 \,min$ before the first $S$ wave. The epicenter of the  earthquake is located at a distance about ..... $km$

    A block $\mathrm{M}$ hangs vertically at the bottom end of a uniform rope of constant mass per unit length. The top end of the rope is attached to a fixed rigid support at $O$. A transverse wave pulse (Pulse $1$ ) of wavelength $\lambda_0$ is produced at point $O$ on the rope. The pulse takes time $T_{O A}$ to reach point $A$. If the wave pulse of wavelength $\lambda_0$ is produced at point $A$ (Pulse $2$) without disturbing the position of $M$ it takes time $T_{A 0}$ to reach point $O$. Which of the following options is/are correct?

    [$A$] The time $\mathrm{T}_{A 0}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{OA}}$

    [$B$] The velocities of the two pulses (Pulse $1$ and Pulse $2$) are the same at the midpoint of rope.

    [$C$] The wavelength of Pulse $1$ becomes longer when it reaches point $A$.

    [$D$] The velocity of any pulse along the rope is independent of its frequency and wavelength.
