EASY
To propagate both longitudinal and transverse waves, a material must have
EASY
In Raman scattering, Stokes and Antistokes lines respectively represents lines with ______ and ______ wavelength.
EASY
When a sound wave is reflected from the boundary of a denser medium, the compression of the incident wave is returned as:
EASY
In a resonance tube experiment when the tube is filled with water up to a height of 17.0 cm, from bottom, it resonates with a given tuning fork. When the water level is raised the next resonance with the same tuning fork occurs at a height of 24.5 cm. If the velocity of sound in air is 330 m s-1, the tuning fork frequency is :
EASY
Which of the following is not a transverse wave?
MEDIUM
If the uncertainty in the position of an electron is 10-10 m, then the value of uncertainty in its momentum will be _____ kg ms-1. h=6.62×10-34 J-s
MEDIUM
The pitch of a sound wave depends upon which one of its following characteristics?
MEDIUM
An object was found to make oscillations governed by the equation y=cos2ωt+π4-0.5. The amplitude and angular frequency of these oscillations, respectively, are
EASY
A pendulum vibrates with a time period of 1 second. The sound produced in it is in the range of
MEDIUM
A sonometer wire 1 metre along weighing 2g is in resonance with a tuning fork of frequency 300 Hz Find tension in the sonometer wire.
MEDIUM
Assume that the displacement s of air is proportional to the pressure difference Δp created by a sound wave. Displacement (s) further depends on the speed of sound (v), density of airρ and the frequency (f). If Δp=10 Pa, n=300 m s-1, p=1 kg m-3 and  f=1000 Hz, then s will be of the order of (take the multiplicative constant to be 1)
EASY
