प्रश्न

Explain why (or how) A violin note and sitar note may have the same frequency, yet we can distinguish between the two notes,

उत्तर १

The overtones produced by a sitar and a violin, and the strengths of these overtones, are different. Hence, one can distinguish between the notes produced by a sitar and a violin even if they have the same frequency of vibration.

उत्तर २

The quality of a violin note is different from the quality of sitar. Therefore, they emit different harmonics which can be observed by human ear and used to differentiate between the two notes.

Two sound waves travel at a speed of 330 m/s. If their frequencies are also identical and are equal to 540 Hz, what will be the phase difference between the waves at points 3.5 m from one source and 3 m from the other if the sources are in phase?


When the observer moves towards the stationary source with velocity, 'V1', the apparent frequency of the emitted note is 'F1'. When the observer moves away from the source with velocity 'V1', the apparent frequency is 'F2'. If 'V' is the velocity of sound in air and `"F"_1/"F"_2 = 4` then `"V"/"V"_1 = ?`
