MCQ
The minimum audible wavelength at room temperature is about
  • A
    $0.2 Å$
  • B
    $5 Å$
  • C
    $5\, cm$ to $2\, metre$
  • $20 \,mm$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$20 \,mm$
d
(d) Since maximum audible frequency is $20,000 Hz,$

hence ${\lambda _{\min }} = \frac{v}{{{n_{\max }}}} = \frac{{340}}{{20,000}} \approx 20\,mm$

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A$ : Body $'P'$ having mass $M$ moving with speed $'u'$ has head-on collision elastically with another body $'Q'$ having mass $'m'$ initially at rest. If $m< < M,$ body $'Q'$ will have a maximum speed equal to $'2u'$ after collision.

Reason $R$ : During elastic collision, the momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
