The amplitude of a wave represented by displacement equation $y = \frac{1}{{\sqrt a }}\,\sin \,\omega t \pm \frac{1}{{\sqrt b }}\,\cos \,\omega t$ will be
A wave travelling along the $x- $ axis is described by the equation $y(x, t) = 0.005\,\,cos(\alpha x\,-\,\beta t).$ If the wavelength and the time period of the wave are $0.08 \,\,m$ and $2.0\,\,s,$ respectively, then $\alpha $ and $\beta $ in appropriate units are
A racing car moving towards a cliff sounds its horn. The driver observes that the sound reflected from the cliff has a pitch one octave higher than the actual sound of the horn. If $v$ is the velocity of sound, the velocity of the car will be
Two vibrating tuning forks produce waves given by ${y_1} = 4\sin 500\pi t$ and ${y_2} = 2\sin 506\pi t.$ Number of beats produced per minute is
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 ...... $Hz$
