उत्तर

Frequency of vibrations produced by a stretched wire

`v = n/(2l) sqrt(T/n)`

Mass per unit length μ = `"Mass"/"Length"`

= `(pir^2 lp)/l`

= `pir^2p`  ......[∵ M = vp = Alρ = πr2lρ]

∴ `v = n/(2l) sqrt(T/(pir^2ρ)`

⇒ `v ∝ sqrt(1/r^2)`

`v ∝ 1/r`

Hence, when the radius is tripled, v will be `1/3` rd of the previous value.

A source of sound is moving towards a stationary observer with velocity 'Vs' and then moves away with velocity 'Vs'. Assume that the medium through which the sound waves travel is at rest, if 'V' is the velocity of sound and 'n' is the frequency emitted by the source, then the difference between the apparent frequencies heard by the observer is ______.

A whistle producing sound waves of frequencies 9500 Hz and above is approaching a stationary person with speed v ms-1. The velocity of sound in air is 300 ms-1. If the person can hear frequencies up to a maximum of 10,000 HZ, the maximum value of v up to which he can hear the whistle is ______.


The observer is moving with velocity 'v0' towards the stationary source of sound and then after crossing moves away from the source with velocity 'v0'. Assume that the medium through which the sound waves travel is at rest. If v is the velocity of sound and n is the frequency emitted by the source, then the difference between apparent frequencies heard by the observer is ______.
