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 .... $m/s$

When a wave travels in a medium, the particle displacement is given by : $y = a\,\sin \,2\pi \left( {bt - cx} \right)$ where $a, b$ and $c$ are constants. The maximum particle velocity will be twice the wave velocity if

A train whistling at constant frequency is moving towards a station at a constant speed $v$. The train goes past a stationary observer on the station. The frequency $n$ of the sound as heard by the observer is plotted as a function of time $t$. Identify the expected curve

$56$ tuning forks are so arranged in increasing order of frequencies in series that each fork gives $4$ beats per second with the previous one. The frequency of the last fork is the octave of the first. The frequency of the first fork is ..... $Hz$

A string fixed at one end is vibrating in its second overtone. The length of the string is $10\  cm$ and maximum amplitude of vibration of particles of the string is $2\ mm$ . Then the amplitude of the particle at $9\ cm$ from the open end is

The equation of a stationary wave is

$y = 0.8\,\cos \,\,\left( {\frac{{\pi x}}{{20}}} \right)\,\sin \,200\,\pi t$

where $x$ is in $cm$ and $t$ is in $sec$ . The separtion between consecutive nodes will be .... $cm$
