When a string is divided into three segments of lengths $${l_1},{l_2}$$ and $${l_3},$$ the fundamental frequencies of these three segments are $${\nu _1},{\nu _2}$$ and $${\nu _3}$$ respectively. The original fundamental frequency $$\left( \nu \right)$$ of the string is

At $$t = 0,$$ the shape of a travelling pulse is given by
$$y\left( {x,0} \right) = \frac{{4 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{8 - {{\left( x \right)}^2}}}$$
where $$x$$ and $$y$$ are in metres. The wave function for the travelling pulse if the velocity of propagation is $$5\,m/s$$ in the $$x$$ direction is given by
KEY CONCEPT : The frequency of a tuning fork is given by the expression
$$f = \frac{{{m^2}k}}{{4\sqrt 3 \pi {\ell ^2}}}\sqrt {\frac{Y}{\rho }} $$
As temperature increases, $$\ell $$ increases and therefore $$f$$ decreases.

If $${n_1},{n_2}$$ and $${n_3}$$ are the fundamental frequencies of three segments into which a string is divided, then the original fundamental frequency $$n$$ of the string is given by
A
$$\frac{1}{n} = \frac{1}{{{n_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{n_2}}} + \frac{1}{{{n_3}}}$$
B
$$\frac{1}{{\sqrt n }} = \frac{1}{{\sqrt {{n_1}} }} + \frac{1}{{\sqrt {{n_2}} }} + \frac{1}{{\sqrt {{n_3}} }}$$
C
$$\sqrt n = \sqrt {{n_1}} + \sqrt {{n_2}} + \sqrt {{n_3}} $$
Total length of string $$\ell = {\ell _1} + {\ell _2} + {\ell _3}$$
(As string is divided into three segments)
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{But frequency}} \propto \frac{1}{{{\text{length}}}}\left( {\because f = \frac{1}{{2\ell }}\sqrt {\frac{T}{m}} } \right) \cr
& {\text{so}}\,\frac{1}{n} = \frac{1}{{{n_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{n_2}}} + \frac{1}{{{n_3}}} \cr} $$

The fundamental frequency of a closed organ pipe of length $$20\,cm$$ is equal to the second overtone of an organ pipe open at both the ends. The length of organ pipe open at both the ends is
Fundamental frequency of closed organ pipe
$${V_c} = \frac{V}{{4{l_c}}}$$
Fundamental frequency of open organ pipe
$${V_0} = \frac{V}{{2{l_0}}}$$
Second overtone frequency of open organ pipe
$$\eqalign{
& = \frac{{3V}}{{2{l_0}}} \cr
& {\text{From question,}} \cr
& \frac{V}{{4{l_c}}} = \frac{{3V}}{{2{l_0}}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {l_0} = 6{l_c} = 6 \times 20 = 120\,cm \cr} $$

A closed organ pipe (closed at one end) is excited to support the third overtone. It is found that air in the pipe has
Third overtone has a frequency $$7\,n,$$ which means $$L = \frac{{7\lambda }}{4} = $$ three full loops + one half loop, which would make four nodes and four antinodes.

Two periodic waves of intensities $${I_1}$$ and $${I_2}$$ pass through a region at the same time in the same direction. The sum of the maximum and minimum intensities is
A
$${I_1} + {I_2}$$
B
$${\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} + \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2}$$
C
$${\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} - \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2}$$
As intensity is directly proportional to the square of amplitude
$${\text{i}}{\text{.e}}{\text{.}}\,\,I \propto {a^2}$$
So, maximum intensity is given by
$$\eqalign{
& {I_{\max }} = {\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} + \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2} \cr
& \left[ {{I_1},{I_2}\,{\text{are intensities}}\,{\text{of two waves}}} \right] \cr
& {\text{and}}\,{I_{\min }} = {\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} - \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2} \cr
& \therefore {I_{\max }} + {I_{\min }} = {\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} + \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2} + {\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} - \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2} \cr
& = 2\left( {{I_1} + {I_2}} \right) \cr} $$

The time of reverberation of a room $$A$$ is $$1\,s.$$ What will be the time (in second) of reverberation of a room, having all the dimensions double of those of room $$A$$?
Sabine's formula for reverberation time is
$$\eqalign{
& T = \frac{{0.16\,V}}{{\Sigma as}} \cr
& T \propto \frac{V}{s} \cr} $$
where, $$V$$ is volume of hall in $${m^3}$$
$$\Sigma as = {a_1}{s_1} + {a_2}{s_2} + ....$$
= total absorption of the hall (room)
Here, $${s_1},{s_2},{s_3}\,...$$ are surface areas of the absorbers and $${a_1},{a_2},{a_3}\,...$$ are their respective absorption coefficients.
So, for two different cases of reverberation.
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore \frac{{T'}}{T} = \frac{{V'}}{{s'}} \times \frac{s}{V} = \frac{{{{\left( 2 \right)}^3}}}{{{{\left( 2 \right)}^2}}} = \frac{8}{4} = 2 \cr
& {\text{Hence,}}\,T' = 2T = 2 \times 1 = 2\,s \cr} $$
