A glass tube of length 1.0 m is completely filled with water. A vibrating tuning fork of frequency 500 Hz is kept over the mouth of the tube and the water is drained out slowly at the bottom of the tube. If velocity of sound in air is 330 ms-1, then the total number of resonances that occur will be
2

A bus is moving with a velocity of 5 ms-1 towards a huge wall. The driver sounds a horn of frequency 165 Hz. If the speed of sound in air is 335 ms-1, the number of beats heard per second by a passenger inside the bus will be

Therefore, the number of beats heard
= 170 − 165
= 5
The resonance frequency of the tank circuit of an oscillator when and C = 0.04 µF are connected in parallel is

electron has wave nature
electric charge is quantized
Two identical conducting spheres carrying different charges attract each other with a force F when placed in air medium at a distance d apart. The spheres are brought into contact and then taken to their original positions. Now the two spheres repel each other with a force whose magnitude is equal to that of the initial attractive force.The ratio between initial charges on the spheres is
Small drops of the same size are charged to V volt each. If n such drops coalesce to form a single large drop, its potential will be
