C
Four times
c (c) Intensity $\propto$ (amplitude)$^2$
as ${A_{\max }} = 2{a_o}$($a_o=$ amplitude of one source) so ${I_{\max }} = 4{I_o}$.

A point source emits sound equally in all directions in a non-absorbing medium, Two points $P$ and $Q $ are at distance of $2m$ and $3m$ respectively from the source. The ratio of the intensities of the waves at $P$ and $ Q$ is
The fundamental frequency of a sonometre wire is $n.$ If its radius is doubled and its tension becomes half, the material of the wire remains same, the new fundamental frequency will be
An observer is approaching with a speed $v$, towards a stationary source emitting sound waves of wavelength $\lambda_0$. The wavelength shift detected by the observer is (Take $c=$ speed of sound)
A whistle of frequency $500 Hz$ tied to the end of a string of length $1.2 m$ revolves at $400 \,rev/min$. A listener standing some distance away in the plane of rotation of whistle hears frequencies in the range (speed of sound $= 340 m/s$)
A source of frequency $\nu$ gives $5$ beats/second when sounded with a source of frequency $200 \;Hz$. The second harmonic of frequency $2\nu$ of source gives $10$ beats/second when sounded with a source of frequency $420\; Hz$. The value of $v$ is .... $Hz$
Two whistles $A$ and $B$ produces notes of frequencies $660 Hz$ and $596 Hz$ respectively. There is a listener at the mid-point of the line joining them. Now the whistle $B$ and the listener start moving with speed $30 m/s$ away from the whistle $A.$ If speed of sound be $330 m/s,$ how many beats will be heard by the listener
