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 .... $m/s$
$10$
$20 $

The pattern of standing waves formed on a stretched string at two instants of time (extreme, mean) are shown in figure. The velocity of two waves superimposing to form stationary waves is $360\, ms^{-1}$ and their frequencies are $256\, Hz$. Which is not possible value of $t$ (in $\sec$) :-
Fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is $n$. If the length and diameter of the wire are doubled keeping the tension same, then the new fundamental frequency is
The diagram shows snapshot of a wave at time $t = 0$. The particle at $x = x_1$ is moving upward at that instant. Direction of propagation of wave is
A source of sound is travelling with a velocity of $40\,km/hour$ towards an observer and emits sound of frequency $2000\,Hz$ . If the velocity of sound is $1220\,km/hour$ , what is the apparent frequency heard by the observer ..... $Hz$
Two waves represented by
$y_1 = 10\,sin\,(2000\,\pi t + 2x)$
and ${y_2} = 10{\mkern 1mu} \,sin\,{\mkern 1mu} \left( {2000{\mkern 1mu} \pi t + 2x + \frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$ are superposed at any point at a particular instant. The resultant amplitude is ..... $unit$
