d (d) Minimum time interval between two instants when the string is flat
= $\frac{T}{2} = 0.5\sec \Rightarrow T = 1\sec $
Hence $\lambda = v \times T = 10 \times 1 = 10\,m$.

The equation of wave is given by $Y=10^{-2} \sin 2 \pi\left(160 t-0.5 x+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)$ Where $x$ and $Y$ are in $m$ and $t$ in $s$. The speed of the wave is $.....\,km h ^{-1}$
When a sound wave of frequency $300 Hz$ passes through a medium the maximum displacement of a particle of the medium is $0.1 cm$. The maximum velocity of the particle is equal to
There is a long linear source of sound whose power is $P$ and length is $L$. At point$A$, sound level is $80$ $dB$ .Then at point $B$ sound level will be .... $dB$
An organ pipe open at one end is vibrating in first overtone and is in resonance with another pipe open at both ends and vibrating in third harmonic. The ratio of length of two pipes is
A source of sound emits sound waves at frequency $f_0$. It is moving towards an observer with fixed speed $v_s$ ($v_s < v$, where $v$ is the speed of sound in air). If the observer were to move towards the source with speed $v_0$, one of the following two graphs ($A$ and $B$) will given the correct variation of the frequency $f$ heard by the observer as $v_0$ is changed The variation of $f$ with $v_0$ is given correctly by
A vibrating string of certain length $l$ under a tension $T$ resonates with a mode corresponding to the first overtone (third harmonic) of an air column of length $75\, cm$ inside a tube closed at one end. The string also generates $4\, beats$ per second when excited along with a tuning fork of frequency $n$. Now when the tension of the string is slightly increased the number of beats reduces to $2\, per second$. Assuming the velocity of sound in air to be $340\, m/s$, the frequency $n$ of the tuning fork in $Hz$ is
A man can hear sounds in frequency range $120\,Hz$ to $12020\,Hz$. only. He is vibrating a piano string having a tension of $240\,N$ and mass of $3\,gm$ . The string has a length of $8\,m$ . How many different frequencies can he hear ?
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 $100 ms^{^{-1}}$.
The end correction of a resonance column is $1\,cm.$ If the shortest length resonating with the tuning fork is $10\,cm,$ the next resonating length should be ..... $cm$
