MCQ
This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2$ .Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1$ : Bats emitting ultrasonic waves can detect the location of a prey by hearing the waves reflected from it.
Statement $2$ : When the source and the detector are moving, the frequency of reflected waves is changed
  • A
    Statement $1$ is false, Statement $2$ is true
  • B
    Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is false
  • Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is true, Statement $2$ is not the correct explanation of Statement $1$
  • D
    Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is true, Statement $2$ is the correct explanation of Statement $1$

Answer

Correct option: C.
Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is true, Statement $2$ is not the correct explanation of Statement $1$
c
Bats catch the prey by hearing reflected ultrasonic waves. When the source and the detector (observer) are moving, frequency of reflected waves change . This is according to Doppler's effect

A resonance tube is old and has jagged end. It is still used in the laboratory to determine velocity of sound in air. A tuning fork of frequency $512\,Hz$ produces first resonance when the tube is filled with water to a mark $11\,cm$ below a reference mark, near the open end of the tube. The experiment is repeated with another fork of frequency $256\,Hz$ which produces first resonance when water reaches a mark $27\,cm$ below the reference mark. The velocity of sound in air, obtained in the experiment, is close to .... $ms^{-1}$
