A transverse wave is described by the equation $y = {y_0}\sin 2\pi \left( {ft - \frac{x}{\lambda }} \right)$. The maximum particle velocity is equal to four times wave velocity if

  • A

    $\lambda  = \frac{{\pi {y_0}}}{4}$

  • B

    $\lambda  = \frac{{\pi {y_0}}}{2}$

  • C

    $\lambda  = \pi {y_0}$

  • D

    $\lambda  = 2\pi {y_0}$

A small source of sound moves on a circle as shown in the figure and an observer is standing on $O.$ Let $n_1,\, n_2$ and $n_3$ be the frequencies heard when the source is at $A, B$ and $C$ respectively. Then

An engine approaches a hill with a constant speed. When it is at a distance of $0.9 km$ it blows a whistle, whose echo is heard by the driver after $5$ sec. If speed of sound in air is $330 m/s$, the speed of engine is .... $m/s$

Two trains $A$ and $B$ initially $120\, km$ apart, start moving towards each other on the same track with a velocity of $60\, km/hr$ each. At the moment of start $A$ blows a whistle, which reflects on $B$ and subsequently reflects from $A$ and so on. Take the velocity of sound waves in air $1200\, km/hr$. The distance travelled by sound waves before the trains crash will be (in $km$)
