The isothermal elasticity of a medium is ${\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{i}}$ and the adiabatic elasticity in ${\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{a}}$. The velocity of sound in the medium is proportional to

1.  ${\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{i}}$

2.  ${\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{a}}$

3.  $\sqrt{{\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{i}}}$

4.  $\sqrt{{\mathrm{E}}_{\mathrm{a}}}$

When a wave is reflected from a denser medium the change in phase is :

1.  0

2.  $\mathrm{\pi }$

3.  $2\mathrm{\pi }$

4.  $3\mathrm{\pi }$

In a stationary wave along a string, the strain is:

1.  zero at the antinodes

2.  maximum at the antinodes

3.  zero at the nodes

4.  maximum at the nodes

A source of sound moves away with the velocity of sound from a stationary observer. The frequency of the sound heard by the observer:

1. remains the same

2. is doubled

3. is halved

4. becomes infinity
 

The longitudinal waves can travel :

1.  only in liquids

2.  only in solids

3.  only in gases

4.  In liquids, solids, and gases

The equation of a wave pulse travelling along x-axis is given by $y=\frac{30}{2+{\left(x-20t\right)}^2}$, x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. The amplitude of the wave pulse is 

1.  5 m

2.  20 m

3.  15 m

4.  30 m

The equation of a standing wave in a string is $\mathrm{y}=\left(\mathrm{200 }\mathrm{m}\right)\sin \frac{2\mathrm{\pi }}{50}\mathrm{x\; cos}\frac{2\mathrm{\pi }}{0.01}\mathrm{t}$ where x is in meters and t is in seconds. At the position of antinode, how many times does the distance of a string particle become 200 m from its mean position in one second?

Eleven tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequency in such a way that any two consecutive tuning forks produce 4 beats per second. The highest frequency is twice that of the lowest. The highest and the lowest frequencies (in Hz) are, respectively:

Consecutive frequencies emitted from an organ pipe are 75Hz, 125Hz, 175Hz.  The frequency of the tenth overtone will be:

The sound intensity level at a point 10 m away from a point source is 20dB, then the sound level at a distance 1m from the same source would be

(1) 40 dB

(2) 30 dB

(3) 200 dB

(4) 100 dB
