Question

A driver is riding a car with velocity vC between two vertical walls on a horizontal surface as shown in figure. A source of sound of frequency 'f' is situated on the car. (vc << v, where v is the speed of sound in air) Consider the sound wave observed by the driver directly from car has a wavelength lambda1 and the sound wave after reflection from wall-1 observed by the driver has wavelength lambda2 thenblank fraction numerator lambda subscript 1 end subscript minus lambda subscript 2 end subscript over denominator lambda subscript 1 end subscript plus lambda subscript 2 end subscript end fraction text  is: end text

  1. fraction numerator v subscript c end subscript over denominator v end fraction    
  2. fraction numerator 2 v subscript c end subscript over denominator v end fraction    
  3. fraction numerator V subscript c end subscript over denominator 4 v end fraction    
  4. fraction numerator 4 v subscript c end subscript over denominator v end fraction    

The correct answer is: fraction numerator v subscript c end subscript over denominator v end fraction

Two identical stretched wires are vibrated together. They produce 8 beats per second. When tension in one wire is changed then the beat frequency is increased. If T1 and T2 denote the tensions in the two wires at any instant and T1 > T2 (initially) then how the change may be performed.

In the experiment for the determination of the speed of sound in air using the resonance column method, the length of the air column that resonates in the fundamental mode, with a tuning fork is 0.1 m. When this length is changed to 0.35 m, the same tuning fork resonates with the first overtone. Calculate the end correction :
