The wavelength of light in the visible part $(\lambda_V)$ and for sound $(\lambda_S)$ are related as:

Given below are some functions of $x$ and $t$ to represent the displacement (transverse or longitudinal) of an elastic wave. State which of these represent $(i)$ a travelling wave,$(ii)$ a stationary wave or $(iii)$ none at all:
$(a)$ $y = 2 \cos(3x) \sin(10t)$
$(b)$ $y = 2 \sqrt{x - vt}$
$(c)$ $y = 3 \sin(5x - 0.5t) + 4 \cos(5x - 0.5t)$
$(d)$ $y = \cos x \sin t + \cos 2x \sin 2t$

$A$ wave is travelling along a string. At an instant,the shape of the string is as shown in the figure. At this instant,point $A$ is moving upwards. Which of the following statements is/are correct?

$A$ parallel beam of light is incident on a tank filled with water up to a height of $61.5 \,mm$ as shown in the figure below. Ultrasonic waves of frequency $0.5 \,MHz$ are sent along the length of the water column using a transducer placed at the top and they form longitudinal standing waves in the water. Which of the schematic plots below best describes the intensity distribution of the light as seen on the screen? (Take the speed of sound in water to be $1500 \,m/s$)

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?

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):
