A small speaker delivers $2\, W$ of audio output. At what distance from the speaker will one detect $120\, dB$ intensity sound ... $cm$ ? [Given reference intensity of sound as $10^{-12}\,W/m^2$]
The wavelength of sound waves in hydrogen gas corresponding to the lower limit of audibility is ........ $m$ (speed of sound in hydrogen gas is about $1350 \,m / s$ )
The equations of two waves acting in perpendicular directions are given as $x=a \cos (\omega t+\delta)$ and $y=a \cos (\omega t+\alpha)$, where $\delta=\alpha+\frac{\pi}{2}$, the resultant wave represents
A wave represented by the given equation $Y = A\sin \left( {10\,\pi \,x + 15\,\pi \,t + \frac{\pi }{3}} \right)$, where $x$ is in meter and $t$ is in second. The expression represents
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
A wire of $10^{-2} kgm^{-1}$ passes over a frictionless light pulley fixed on the top of a frictionless inclined plane which makes an angle of $30^o$ with the horizontal. Masses $m$ and $M$ are tied at two ends of wire such that m rests on the plane and $M$ hangs freely vertically downwards. The entire system is in equilibrium and a transverse wave propagates along the wire with a velocity of $100 ms^{^{-1}}$.
A transverse wave is described by the equation $Y = {Y_0}\sin 2\pi \left( {ft - \frac{x}{\lambda }} \right)$. The maximum particle velocity is four times the wave velocity if
