A piston is fitted in a cylindrical tube of small cross-section with the other end of the tube open. The tube resonates with a tuning fork of frequency 512Hz. The piston is gradually pulled out of the tube and it is found that a second resonance occurs when the piston is pulled out through a distance of 32.0cm. Calculate the speed of sound in the air of the tube.

An ideal gas is kept in a long cylindrical vessel fitted with a frictionless piston of cross-sectional area 10cmand weight 1kg (figure.) The vessel itself is kept in a big chamber containing air at atmospheric pressure 100kPa. The length of the gas column is 20cm. If the chamber is now completely evacuated by an exhaust pump, what will be the length of the gas column? Assume the temperature to remain constant throughout the process.

A thin lens made of a material of refractive index $\mu_2$ has a medium of refractive index $\mu_1$ on one side and a medium of refractive index $\mu_3$ on the other side. The lens is biconvex and the two radii of curvature have equal magnitude R. A beam of light travelling parallel to the principal axis is incident on the lens. Where will the image be formed if the beam is incident from:
