Two tuning forks having frequencies 320 Hz and 340 Hz are sounded together to produce sound waves. The velocity of sound in air is 340 m/s. Find the difference in wavelength of these waves.
उत्तर
Given:
- n1 = 320 Hz
- n2 = 340 Hz
- v = 340 m/s
To find:
Difference in wavelength (λ1 − λ2) = ?
Formula:
`lambda_1 = v/n_1 and lambda_2 = v/n_2`
Here, n1 < n2,
∴ λ1 > λ2
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = v/n_1 - v/n_2`
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = v[1/n_1 - v/n_2]`
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = 340[(340 - 320)/(320 xx 340)]`
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = 340[20/(320 xx 340)]`
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = cancel340[20/(320 xx cancel340)]`
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = 1/16`
∴ `lambda_1 - lambda_2 = 0.0625 m`

A traffic policeman sounds a whistle to stop a car-driver approaching towards him. The car-driver does not stop and takes the plea in court that because of the Doppler shift, the frequency of the whistle reaching him might have gone beyond the audible limit of 25 kHz and he did not hear it.
