a (a) No of beats, $x = \Delta n = \frac{{30}}{3} = 10\,Hz$
==> Also $\Delta n = v\left[ {\frac{1}{{{\lambda _1}}} - \frac{1}{{{\lambda _2}}}} \right] = v\,\left[ {\frac{1}{5} - \frac{1}{6}} \right]=10$
==>$v = 300\,m/s$

The frequency of tuning forks $A$ and $B$ are respectively $3\%$ more and $2\%$ less than the frequency of tuning fork $C.$ When $A$ and $B$ are simultaneously excited, $5$ beats per second are produced. Then the frequency of the tuning fork $'A'$ (in $Hz$) is
A tuning fork is used to produce resonance in a glass tube. The length of the air column in this tube can be adjusted by a variable piston. At room temperature of $27\,^o C$ two successive resonances are produced at $20\, cm$ and $73\, cm$ of column length. If the frequency of the tuning fork is $320\, Hz,$ the velocity of sound in air at $27\,^o C$ is .... $m/s$
The vibrations of four air columns under identical conditions are represented in the figure below. The ratio of frequencies $n_p: n_q: n_r: n_s$ will be
There is a destructive interference between the two waves of wavelength $\lambda$ coming from two different paths at a point. To get maximum sound or constructive interference at that point, the path of one wave is to be increased by
A tuning fork of frequency $480\, Hz$ is used in an experiment for measuring speed of sound $(\nu )$ in air by resonance tube method. Resonance is observed to occur at two successive lengths of the air column, ${\ell _1} = 30\,cm$ and ${\ell _2} = 70\,cm$. Then $\nu$ is equal to ..... $ms^{-1}$
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
When an air column at $15\,^oC$ and a tunning fork are sounded together then $4$ beats per second are produced, the frequency of the fork is less then that of air column. When the temperature falls to $10\,^oC$ , then the beat frequency decreases by one. The frequency of the fork will be ..... $Hz$ $[V_{sound}$ at $0\,^oC = 332\,m/s]$
