A cylindrical tube, open at both ends, has a fundamental frequency, $$f,$$ in air. The tube is dipped vertically in water so that half of it is in water. The fundamental frequency of the air-column is now:
The fundamental frequency of open tube
$${\nu _0} = \frac{v}{{2{l_0}}}\,\,\,.....\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
That of closed pipe
$${\nu _c} = \frac{v}{{4{l_c}}}\,\,\,.....\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
According to the problem $${l_c} = \frac{{{l_0}}}{2}$$
Thus, $${\nu _c} = \frac{v}{{\frac{{{l_0}}}{2}}} \Rightarrow \,{\nu _c}\frac{v}{{2l}}\,\,\,.....\left( {{\text{iii}}} \right)$$
From equations (i) and (iii)
$${\nu _0} = {\nu _c}$$
Thus, $${\nu _c} = f\left( {\because \,{\nu _0} = f\,{\text{is given}}} \right)$$

A pipe of length $${{\ell _1}},$$ closed at one end is kept in a chamber of gas of density $${{\rho _1}}.$$ A second pipe open at both ends is placed in a second chamber of gas of density $${{\rho _2}}.$$ The compressibility of both the gases is equal. Calculate the length of the second pipe if frequency of first overtone in both the cases is equal
A
$$\frac{4}{3}{\ell _1}\sqrt {\frac{{{\rho _2}}}{{{\rho _1}}}} $$
B
$$\frac{4}{3}{\ell _1}\sqrt {\frac{{{\rho _1}}}{{{\rho _2}}}} $$
C
$${\ell _1}\sqrt {\frac{{{\rho _2}}}{{{\rho _1}}}} $$
D
$${\ell _1}\sqrt {\frac{{{\rho _1}}}{{{\rho _2}}}} $$
Frequency of first overtone in closed pipe,
$$\nu = \frac{{3v}}{{4{\ell _1}}}\sqrt {\frac{P}{{{\rho _1}}}} \,\,\,.....\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
Frequency of first overtone in open pipe,
$$\nu ' = \frac{1}{{{\ell _2}}}\sqrt {\frac{P}{{{\rho _2}}}} \,\,\,.....\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
From equation (i) and (ii)
$$ \Rightarrow \,\,{\ell _2} = \frac{4}{3}{\ell _1}\sqrt {\frac{{{\rho _1}}}{{{\rho _2}}}} $$

The driver of a car travelling with speed $$30\,m{s^{ - 1}}$$ towards a hill sounds a horn of frequency $$600\,Hz.$$ If the velocity of sound in air is $$330\,m{s^{ - 1}},$$ the frequency of reflected sound as heard by driver is
Use Doppler’s effect.
According to Doppler's effect, whenever there is a relative motion between a source of sound and the observer (listener), the frequency of sound heard by the observer is different from the actual frequency of sound emitted by source.
$$\eqalign{
& \left[ {{\text{for case }}1} \right] \cr
& n' = \frac{v}{{v - 30}}n\,......\left( {\text{i}} \right) \cr} $$

{n = {\rm{frequency\,emitted\,by\,car}}}\\
{v = {\rm{velocity\,of\,sound}}}

Two waves are represented by the equations $${y_1} = a\sin \left( {\omega t + kx + 0.57} \right)m$$ and $${y_2} = a\cos \left( {\omega t + kx} \right)m,$$ where $$x$$ is in meter and $$t$$ in $$\sec.$$ The phase difference between them is

A car is moving towards a high cliff The car driver sounds a horn of frequency $$f.$$ The reflected sound heard by the driver has as frequency $$2f.$$ If $$v$$ be the velocity of sound, then the velocity of the car, in the same velocity units, will be
Let $$f'$$ be the frequency of sound heard by cliff.
$$\therefore f' = \frac{{vf}}{{v - {v_c}}}\,......\left( 1 \right)$$
Now for the reflected wave cliff. acts as a source
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore 2f' = \frac{{f'\left( {v + {v_c}} \right)}}{v}\,......\left( 2 \right) \cr
& 2f = \frac{{\left( {v + {v_c}} \right)f}}{{v - {v_c}}} \Rightarrow 2v - 2\,{v_c} = v + {v_c} \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,\frac{v}{3} = {v_c} \cr} $$

A hollow pipe of length $$0.8\,m$$ is closed at one end. At its open end a $$0.5\,m$$ long uniform string is vibrating in its second harmonic and it resonates with the fundamental frequency of the pipe. If the tension in the wire is $$50\,N$$ and the speed of sound is $$320\,m{s^{ - 1}},$$ the mass of the string is
Frequency of $${2^{nd}}$$ harmonic of string = Fundamental frequency produced in the pipe
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore \,\,2 \times \left[ {\frac{1}{{2{l_1}}}\sqrt {\frac{T}{\mu }} } \right] = \frac{v}{{4{l_2}}} \cr
& \therefore \,\,\frac{1}{{0.5}}\sqrt {\frac{{50}}{\mu }} = \frac{{320}}{{4 \times 0.8}} \cr
& \therefore \,\,\mu = 0.02\,kg\,{m^{ - 1}} \cr} $$
The mass of the string $$ = \mu {l_1}$$
$$\eqalign{
& = 0.02 \times 0.5\,kg \cr
& = 10\,g \cr} $$

A sonometer wire supports a $$4\,kg$$ load and vibrates in fundamental mode with a tuning fork of frequency $$416\,Hz.$$ The length of the wire between the bridges is now doubled. In order to maintain fundamental mode, the load should be changed to
Load supported by sonometer wire $$= 4\,kg$$
Tension in sonometer wire $$= 4\,g$$
If $$\mu = $$ mass per unit length
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{then frequency }}\upsilon = \frac{1}{{2l}}\sqrt {\frac{T}{\mu }} \cr
& \Rightarrow 416 = \frac{1}{{2l}}\sqrt {\frac{{4g}}{\mu }} \cr} $$
When length is doubled, i.e., $$l' = 2l$$
Let new load $$= L$$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{As,}}\,\,\upsilon ' = \upsilon \cr
& \therefore \frac{1}{{2l'}}\sqrt {\frac{{Lg}}{\mu }} = \frac{1}{{2l}}\sqrt {\frac{{4g}}{\mu }} \cr
& \Rightarrow \frac{1}{{4l}}\sqrt {\frac{{Lg}}{\mu }} = \frac{1}{{2l}}\sqrt {\frac{{4g}}{\mu }} \cr
& \Rightarrow \sqrt L = 2 \times 2 \Rightarrow L = 16\,kg \cr} $$

Choose the false statement(s) from the following.
I. Change in frequency due to Doppler effect will be positive if the distance
between source and listener increases.
II. Change in frequency due to Doppler effect will be negative if the distance between source and listener
Change in frequency has nothing to do with distance between source and listener.
