The wave length of light in visible part $({\lambda _V})$ and for sound $({\lambda _S})$ are related as
A${\lambda _V} > {\lambda _S}$
B${\lambda _S} > {\lambda _V}$
C${\lambda _S} = {\lambda _V}$
D

B${\lambda _S} > {\lambda _V}$
b We know that the speed of the sound is comparatively very small as compared to the speed of the light. So, the wavelength of the sound wave will be very large as compared to the wavelength of the visible part.
$\therefore \lambda_S > \lambda_N$

A wave travels uniformly in all directions from a point source in an isotropic medium. The displacement of the medium at any point at a distance $r$ from the source may be represented by ($A$ is a constant representing strength of source)
On a long horizontally moving belt, a child runs to and fro with a speed $9\, km\, h^{-1}$ (with respect to the belt) between his father and mother located $50\, m$ apart on the moving belt. The belt moves with a speed of $4\, km\, h^{-1}$. For an observer on a stationary platform, the speed of the child running in the direction of motion of the belt is ..... $km\,h^{-1}$
$A$ source $S$ of frequency $f_0$ and an observer $O$, moving with speeds $v_1$ and $v_2$ respectively, are movinng away from each other. When they are separated by distance a $(t =0)$, a pulse is emitted by the source. This pulse is received by $O$ at time $t_1$ then $t_1$, is equal to
The transverse displacement $y (x, t)$ of a wave on a string is given by $y\left( {x,t} \right) = {e^{ - \left( {a{x^2} + b{t^2} + 2\sqrt {ab} \;xt} \right)}}$ .This represents a
A man is watching two trains, one leaving and the other coming in with equal speeds of $4\, m/sec$. If they sound their whistles, each of frequency $240 Hz$, the number of beats heard by the man (velocity of sound in air $= 320 m/sec$) will be equal to
If two tuning forks $A$ and $B$ are sounded together, they produce $4$ beats per second. $A$ is then slightly loaded with wax, they produce $2$ beats when sounded again. The frequency of $A$ is $256.$ The frequency of $B$ will be
A person feels $2.5\%$ difference of frequency of a motor-car horn. If the motor-car is moving to the person and the velocity of sound is $320\, m/sec,$ then the velocity of car will be
A source of sound of frequency $450$ cycles/sec is moving towards a stationary observer with $34\, m/sec$ speed. If the speed of sound is $340\, m/sec,$ then the apparent frequency will be ..... $cycles/sec$
