A person blows into open-end of a long pipe. As a result, a high pressure pulse of air travels down the pipe.
When this pulse reaches the other end of the pipe,
- A a high-pressure pulse starts travelling up the pipe, if the other end of the pipe is open.
- B a low-pressure pulse starts travelling up the pipe, if the other end of the pipe is open.
- C a low-pressure pulse starts travelling up the pipe, if the other end of the pipe is closed.
- D a high-pressure pulse starts travelling up the pipe, if the other end of the pipe is closed.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) a high-pressure pulse starts travelling up the pipe, if the other end of the pipe is closed.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
When a sound pulse is reflected from open end of a pipe, phase changes by \(180^{\circ}\). A high pressure pulse i.e., compression is reflected as a low pressure pulse i.e., rarefaction. When sound pulse is reflected through a rigid boundary (closed end of a pipe), no phase change occurs so a high pressure pulse is reflected as a high pressure pulse.

- A soft plastic bottle, filled with water of density \(1 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\), carries an inverted glass test-tube with some air (ideal gas) trapped as shown in the figure. The test-tube has a mass of \(5 \mathrm{gm}\), and it is made of a thick glass of density \(2.5 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\). Initially the bottle is sealed at atmospheric pressure \(p_{0}=10^{5} \mathrm{~Pa}\) so that the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}=3.3 \mathrm{cc}\). When the bottle is squeezed from outside at constant temperature, the pressure inside rises and the volume of the trapped air reduces. It is found that the test tube begins to sink at pressure \(p_{0}+\Delta p\) without changing its orientation. At this pressure, the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}-\Delta v\).
Let \(\Delta v=X\) cc and \(\Delta p=Y \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~Pa}\).

- Paragraph :
A special metal \(S\) conducts electricity without any resistance. A closed wire loop, made of \(S\), does not allow any change in flux through itself by inducing a suitable current to generate a compensating flux. The induced current in the loop cannot decay due to its zero resistance. This current gives rise to a magnetic moment which in turn repels the source of magnetic field or flux. Consider such a loop, of radius \(a\), with its center at the origin. A magnetic dipole of moment \(m\) is brought along the axis of this loop from infinity to a point at distance \(r(\gg a)\) from the center of the loop with its north pole always facing the loop, as shown in the figure below.
The magnitude of magnetic field of a dipole \(m\), at a point on its axis at distance \(r\), is \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{2 \pi} \frac{m}{r^{3}}\), where \(\mu_{0}\) is the permeability of free space. The magnitude of the force between two magnetic dipoles with moments, \(m_{1}\) and \(m_{2}\), separated by a distance \(r\) on the common axis, with their north poles facing each other, is \(\frac{k m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{4}}\), where \(k\) is a constant of appropriate dimensions. The direction of this force is along the line joining the two dipoles.
