$A$ vibrating string of certain length $l$ under a tension $T$ resonates with a mode corresponding to the first overtone (third harmonic) of an air column of length $75 \ cm$ inside a tube closed at one end. The string also generates $4$ beats per second when excited along with a tuning fork of frequency $n$. Now,when the tension of the string is slightly increased,the number of beats reduces to $2$ per second. Assuming the velocity of sound in air to be $340 \ m/s$,the frequency $n$ of the tuning fork in $Hz$ is:

  • A
    $344$
  • B
    $336$
  • C
    $117.3$
  • D
    $109.3$

An air column in a tube $32 \,cm$ long, closed at one end, is in resonance with a tuning fork. The air column in another tube, open at both ends, of length $66 \,cm$ is in resonance with another tuning fork. When these two tuning forks are sounded together, they produce $8$ beats per second. Then the frequencies of the two tuning forks are (Consider fundamental frequencies only):

$A$ narrow tube is bent in the form of a circle of radius $R,$ as shown in the figure. Two small holes $S$ and $D$ are made in the tube at positions at a right angle to each other. $A$ source placed at $S$ generates a wave of intensity $I_0$ which is equally divided into two parts: one part travels along the longer path,while the other travels along the shorter path. Both the waves meet at the point $D$ where a detector is placed. If a minimum is formed at the detector,then the magnitude of the wavelength $\lambda$ of the wave produced is given by:

At a certain moment, the photograph of a string on which a harmonic wave is travelling to the right is shown. Then, which of the following is true regarding the velocities of the points $P$, $Q$ and $R$ on the string?
