MCQ
The frequency of a sound wave is $n$ and its velocity is $v.$ If the frequency is increased to $4n,$ the velocity of the wave will be:
- ✓$\nu$
- B$2\nu$
- C$4\nu$
- D$\frac{\nu}{4}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\nu$
Velocity of sound is independent of frequency.
Therefore, it is same $(\nu)$ for frequency $n$ and $4n.$
Therefore, it is same $(\nu)$ for frequency $n$ and $4n.$
