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 narrow sound pulse (for example, a short pip by a whistle) is sent across a medium. (a) Does the pulse have a definite (i) frequency, (ii) wavelength, (iii) speed of propagation? (b) If the pulse rate is 1 after every 20 s, (that is the whistle is blown for a split of second after every 20 s), is the frequency of the note produced by the whistle equal to 1/20 or 0.05 Hz
