A transverse wave is travelling along a stretched string from right to left. The figure shown represents the shape of the string at a given instant. At this instant
the particles at $A, B$ and $H$ have downward velocity
the particles at $D, E$ and $F$ have downward velocity
the particles at $C, E$ and $G$ have zero velocity
the particles at $A$ and $F$ have maximum velocity
For a certain organ pipe three successive resonance frequencies are observed at $425\, Hz,595 \,Hz$ and $765 \,Hz$ respectively. If the speed of sound in air is $340 \,m/s$, then the length of the pipe is ..... $m$
A sound absorber attenuates the sound level by $20\,\, dB$. The intensity decrease by a factor of
A $10\, m$ long steel wire has mass $5\,g$. If the wire is under a tension of $80\, N$, the speed of transverse waves on the wire is .... $ms^{-1}$
A car $P$ approaching a crossing at a speed of $10\,m/s$ sounds a horn of frequency $700 \,Hz$ when $40\,m$ in front of the crossing. Speed of sound in air is $340\,m/s$. Another car $Q$ is at rest on a road which is perpendicular to the road on which car $P$ is reaching the crossing (see figure). The driver of car $Q$ hears the sound of the horn of car $P$ when he is $30\,m$ in front of the crossing. The apparent frequency heard by the driver of car $Q$ is ..... $Hz$
The transverse displacement of a string (clamped at its both ends) is given by $y(x,t) = 0.06$ $sin\, (2\pi x /3)\, cos\, (120\, \pi t)$. All the points on the string between two consecutive nodes vibrate with
