The equation \(y(x,t) = 0.005 ~cos (\alpha x- \beta t)\) describes a wave traveling along the x-axis. If the wavelength and the time period of the wave are 0.08 m and 2.0 s, respectively, then α and β in appropriate units are:

1. α=25.00 π, β=π

2. α=0.08π, β=2.0π

3. α=0.04π, β=1.0π

4. α=12.50 π, β=π2.0

A vibrating tuning fork of frequency n is placed near the open end of a long cylindrical tube.           
           
The tube has a side opening and is also fitted with a movable reflecting piston. As the piston is moved through 8.75 cm, the intensity of sound changes from a maximum to a minimum. If the speed of sound is 350 metre per second, then n is -

1.  500 Hz
2.  1000 Hz
3.  2000 Hz
4.  4000 Hz
