A block $\mathrm{M}$ hangs vertically at the bottom end of a uniform rope of constant mass per unit length. The top end of the rope is attached to a fixed rigid support at $O$. A transverse wave pulse (Pulse $1$ ) of wavelength $\lambda_0$ is produced at point $O$ on the rope. The pulse takes time $T_{O A}$ to reach point $A$. If the wave pulse of wavelength $\lambda_0$ is produced at point $A$ (Pulse $2$) without disturbing the position of $M$ it takes time $T_{A 0}$ to reach point $O$. Which of the following options is/are correct?

(image)

[$A$] The time $\mathrm{T}_{A 0}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{OA}}$

[$B$] The velocities of the two pulses (Pulse $1$ and Pulse $2$) are the same at the midpoint of rope.

[$C$] The wavelength of Pulse $1$ becomes longer when it reaches point $A$.

[$D$] The velocity of any pulse along the rope is independent of its frequency and wavelength.

Two wires are fixed in a sonometer. Their tensions are in the ratio $8 : 1$. The lengths are in the ratio $36:35.$ The diameters are in the ratio $4 : 1$. Densities of the materials are in the ratio $1 : 2$. If the lower frequency in the setting is $360 Hz.$ the beat frequency when the two wires are sounded together is

A string of length $1\,\,m$ and linear mass density $0.01\,\,kgm^{-1}$ is stretched to a tension of $100\,\,N.$ When both ends of the string are fixed, the three lowest frequencies for standing wave are $f_1, f_2$ and $f_3$. When only one end of the string is fixed, the three lowest frequencies for standing wave are $n_1, n_2$ and $n_3$. Then
