The disturbance $y (x, t)$ of a wave propagating in the positive. $x-$ direction is given by $y = \frac{1}{{1 + {x^2}}}$ at time $t\,= 0$ and by $y = \frac{1}{{\left[ {1 + {{\left( {x - 1} \right)}^2}} \right]}}$ at $t\, = 2\, s$, where $x$ and $y$ are in meters. The shape of the wave disturbance does not change during the propagation. The velocity of wave in $m/s$ is

When two tuning forks (fork $1$ and fork $2$ ) are sounded together, $4$ beats per second are heard. Now some tape is attached on the prong of the fork $2$. When the tuning forks are sounded again, $6$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $1$ is $200 \,Hz$, then the original frequency of fork $2$ is ........... $Hz$
A transverse wave is travelling along a stretched string from right to left. The figure shown represents the shape of the string at a given instant. At this instant
Two sirens situated one kilometer apart are producing sound of frequency $330 Hz$. An observer starts moving from one siren to the other with a speed of $2 m/s$. If the speed of sound be $330 m/s$, what will be the beat frequency heard by the observer
The rope shown at an instant is carrying a wave travelling towards right, created by a source vibrating at a frequency $n$. Consider the following statements
$I.$ The speed of the wave is $4n \times ab$
$II.$ The medium at $a$ will be in the same phase as $d$ after $\frac{4}{{3n}}s$
$III.$ The phase difference between $b$ and $e$ is $\frac{{3\pi }}{2}$
A sonometer wire of length $114\, cm$ is fixed at both the ends. Where should the two bridges be placed so as to divide the wire into three segments whose fundamental frequencies are in the ratio $1 : 3 : 4$ ?
The driver of a car travelling with speed $30$ metres per second towards a hill sounds a horn of frequency $600 Hz$. If the velocity of sound in air is $330$ metres per second, the frequency of the reflected sound as heard by the driver is .... $Hz$
The string of a violin emits a note of $205 \,Hz$ at its correct tension. The string is tightened slightly and then it produces six beats in two seconds with a tuning fork of frequency $205 Hz$. The frequency of the note emitted by the taut string is .......... $Hz$
If the tension and diameter of a sonometer wire of fundamental frequency $n$ are doubled and density is halved then its fundamental frequency will become
In a large room, a person receives direct sound waves from a source $120$ metres away from him. He also receives waves from the same source which reach him, being reflected from the $25$ metre high ceiling at a point halfway between them. The two waves interfere constructively for wavelength of
