(b) $v = 330$$m/s$; $n = 165$$Hz$.

Distance between two successive nodes

= $\frac{\lambda }{2}$ $ = \frac{v}{{2n}} = \frac{{330}}{{2 \times 165}} = 1m$

    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. . . . .

    A vibrating string of certain length $l$ under a tension $T$ resonates with a mode corresponding to the first overtone (third harmonic) of an air column of length $75\, cm$ inside a tube closed at one end. The string also generates $4\, beats$ per second when excited along with a tuning fork of frequency $n$. Now when the tension of the string is slightly increased the number of beats reduces to $2\, per second$. Assuming the velocity of sound in air to be $340\, m/s$, the frequency $n$ of the tuning fork in $Hz$ is
