The tension of a stretched string is increased by 69 %. In order to keep its frequency of vibration constant, its length must be increased by
30 %
20 %

Under the same conditions of temperature and presssure, the velocity of sound in oxygen and hydrogen are vo and vH. Then
vo = 4vH
vH = 4vo
vo = vH
vH = 16vo
Forty one tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequencies such that every fork gives 5 beats with the next. The last fork has a frequency that is double the frequency of the first fork is
210
400

D.
200
f1 = frequency of first fork
f41 = frequency of 41st fork
f41 = 2f1
Between Ist and 41st there are 40 intervals each interval produces 5 beats.
f41 − f1 = 40 × 5
2f1 − f1 = 200
f1 = 200 Hz
In a stationary wave all the particles
in the region between two nodes vibrate in same phase
on either side of a node vibrate in same phase
of the medium vibrate in same phase
in the region between two antinodes vibrate in same phase
A cylindrical tube open at both ends, has a fundamental frequency f0 in air. The tube is dipped vertically into water such that half of its length is inside water. The fundamental frequency of the air column now is
f0
2f0
A man x can hear upto 10 kHz and another man y upto 2 kHz. A note of frequency 500 Hz is produced before them from a stretched string then both will hear sounds of
different pitch but same quality
same pitch but different quality
same pitch and same quality
different pitch and different quality

A light points fixed to one prong of a tuning fork touches a vertical plate. The fork is set vibrating and the plate is allowed to fall freely. If eight oscillations are counted when the plate falls through 10 cm, the frequency of the tuning fork is
280 Hz
360 Hz
56 Hz

A train moving t a speed of 220 ms-1 towards a stationary object. emits a sound of frequency 1000 Hz. Some of the sound reaching the object gets reflected back to the train as echo. The frequency of the echo as detected by the driver of the train is
(speed of sound in air is 330 ms-1)
3500 Hz
4000 Hz
5000 Hz
