A tube 0.75 m long is closed at one end. A stretched wire is placed near the open end. The wire is 0.25 m long and has a mass of 0.01 kg. It is held fixed at both ends and vibrates in its fundamental mode. It sets the air column in the tube into vibration at its fundamental frequency by resonance. If speed of sound is 330 m s-1 in air then tension in the wire is 11n N. Value of n, is

A source is oscillating between A and C with its position varying with time as y=900 cos πt6, where y is in metre. An observer is situated at a distance 12 m along the perpendicular bisector of AC. Frequency emitted by source is 300 Hz. Approximate frequency observed by observer when source is at O is 5n Hz. Value of n, is [Velocity of sound in air =300 m s-1]
