When height increases, the velocity of sound decreases:

1.	due to the decrease in pressure.
2.	due to a decrease in temperature.
3.	as a result of a decrease in both temperature and pressure
4.	statement is wrong.

A sufficiently long-closed organ pipe has a small hole at its bottom. Initially, the pipe is empty. Water is poured into the pipe at a constant rate. The fundamental frequency of the air column in the pipe:

The fundamental frequency of an open organ pipe is 200 Hz. If one end of the pipe is closed, its fundamental frequency becomes:

A student tunes his guitar by striking a \(120~\text{Hz}\) with a tuning fork and playing the \(4^{th}\) string at the same time. By keen observation, he hears the amplitude of the combined sound oscillating thrice per second. Which of the following frequencies is most likely the frequency of the \(4^{th}\) string on his guitar?
1. \(130\)
2. \(117\)
3. \(110\)
4. \(120\)
 

A transverse wave moves from a medium \(A\) to a medium \(B\). In medium \(A\), the velocity of the transverse wave is \(500~\text{ms}^{-1}\) and the wavelength is \(5~\text{m}\). The frequency and the wavelength of the wave in medium \(B\) when its velocity is \(600~\text{ms}^{-1}\), respectively are:

A person standing between two parallel hills fires a gun and hears the first echo after ${\mathrm{t}}_1$ sec and the second echo after ${\mathrm{t}}_2$ sec. The distance between the two hills is: [Given: Speed of sound = v]

$1.$ $\frac{\mathrm{v}\left({\mathrm{t}}_1-{\mathrm{t}}_2\right)}{2}$
$2.$ $\frac{\mathrm{v}\left({\mathrm{t}}_1{\mathrm{t}}_2\right)}{2\left({\mathrm{t}}_1+{\mathrm{t}}_2\right)}$
$3.$ $\mathrm{v}\left({\mathrm{t}}_1+{\mathrm{t}}_2\right)$
$4.$ $\frac{\mathrm{v}\left({\mathrm{t}}_1+{\mathrm{t}}_2\right)}{2}$

A string with a mass \(2.50~\text{kg}\) is under a tension of \(200~\text{N}\). The length of the stretched string is \(20.0~\text{m}\). If the transverse jerk is struck at one end of the string, how long does it take for the disturbance to reach the other end?
1. \(0.5~\text{s}\)
2. \(0.6~\text{s}\)
3. \(0.4~\text{s}\)
4. \(0.1~\text{s}\)

A steel wire has a length of 12.0 m and a mass of 2.10 kg. What should be the tension in the wire so that the speed of a transverse wave on the wire equals the speed of sound in dry air at \(20^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) (which is  343 m/sec)?
1. $4.3\times {10}^3$ N
2. $3.2\times {10}^4$ N
3. $2.06\times {10}^4$ N
4. $1.2\times {10}^4$ N
 

A bat emits an ultrasonic sound of frequency 1000 kHz in the air. If the sound meets a water surface, what is the wavelength of the reflected sound? (The speed of sound in air is 340 m/sec and in water is 1486 m/sec)
1. \(3.4 \times 10^{-4}~\text{m}\)
2. \(1 . 49 \times 10^{- 3}  ~ \text{m}\)
3. \(2 . 34 \times 10^{- 2}   ~\text{m}\)
4. \(1 . 73 \times10^{- 3}   ~\text{m}\)

Stationary waves can be obtained in an air column even if interfering waves have different:

1. Amplitude

2. Wavelength

3. Velocity

4. Frequency
