An open organ pipe containing air resonates in fundamental mode due to a tuning fork. The measured values of length (in cm ) of the pipe and radius r (in cm ) of the pipe are =94±0.1, r=5±0.05. The velocity of the sound in air is accurately known. The maximum percentage error in the measurement of the frequency of that tuning fork by this experiment is given by x%. Find the value of 100x.

A source and an observer are situated on two perpendicular tracks as shown in the figure. The observer is at rest and the source is moving with a speed of 50 m s-1. The source emits a sound wave of frequency 75 Hz which travel in the medium with a velocity of 200 m s-1. The frequency (in Hz) of the sound heard by the observer when the source crosses the origin is,
