When two tuning forks (fork $1$ and fork $2$) are sounded simultaneously, $4$ beats per second are heard. Now, some tape is attached on the prong of the fork $2$. When the tuning forks are sounded again, $6$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $1$ is $200\, Hz$, then what was the original frequency of fork $2$? .... $Hz$

B$200$

D$196$
d Frequency of fork $1=200 \mathrm{Hz}=\mathrm{n}_{0}$
No. of beats heard when fork $2$ is sounded
with fork $1=\Delta n=4$
Now we know that if on loading (attaching tape) an unknown fork, the beat frequency increases (from $4$ to $6$ in this case ) then the frequency of the unknown fork $2$ is given by, $\mathrm{n}=\mathrm{n}_{0}-\Delta \mathrm{n}=200-4=196 \mathrm{Hz}$

The equation of a wave motion (with $t$ in seconds and $x$ in metres) is given by $y = 7\sin \,\left[ {7\pi t - 0.4\pi x + \frac{\pi }{3}} \right]$. The velocity of the wave will be
A transverse pulse generated at the bottom of a uniform rope of length $L$, travels in upward direction. The time taken by it to travel the full length of rope will be
A string is clamed at both the ends and it is vibrating in its $4^{th}$ harmonic. The equation of the stationary wave is $Y =0.3\,sin\,(0.157\,x) \,cos\,(200\pi t)$. The length of the string is ..... $m$ (all quantities are in $SI$ units)
A wire of length $L$ and mass per unit length $6.0\times 10^{-3}\; \mathrm{kgm}^{-1}$ is put under tension of $540\; \mathrm{N}$. Two consecutive frequencies that it resonates at are : $420\; \mathrm{Hz}$ and $490 \;\mathrm{Hz}$. Then $\mathrm{L}$ in meters is
The phase difference between two points separated by $0.8 m$ in a wave of frequency is $120 Hz$ is $\frac{\pi }{2}.$ The velocity of wave is ..... $m/s$
When a guitar string is sounded with a $440\, Hz$ tuning fork, a beat frequency of $5\, Hz$ is heard. If the experiment is repeated with a tuning fork of $437\,Hz$, the beat frequency is $8\, Hz$. The string frequency $(Hz)$ is
