MCQ
Select the correct statement about the reflection and refraction of a wave at the interface between the medium $1$ and $2$ the
  • A
    Reflected wave has a phase change of $\pi$
  • B
    Wavelength of reflected wave is less than that of incident wave
  • Frequency of transmitted wave is same as that of incident wave
  • D
    Frequency of wave changes as per nature of boundary

Answer

Correct option: C.
Frequency of transmitted wave is same as that of incident wave
c
(c)

It is not said which of waves $1$ and $2$ is denser. But frequency of a wave remains same in all media. Hence option $(c)$ is correct.

An ideal fluid of density $800 \; kgm ^{-3}$, flows smoothly through a bent pipe (as shown in figure) that tapers in cross-sectional area from $a$ to $\frac{ a }{2}$. The pressure difference between the wide and narrow sections of pipe is $4100 \; Pa$. At wider section, the velocity of fluid is $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{6} \; ms ^{-1}$ for $x = \dots$ $\left(\right.$ Given $g =10 \; m ^{-2}$ )
