- 4. A tuning fork resonates with a sonometer wire of length \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) stretched with a tension of \(6 \mathrm{~N}\). When the tension in the wire is changed to \(54 \mathrm{~N}\), the same tuning fork produces \(12\) beats per second with it. The frequency of the tuning fork is _______ \(\mathrm{Hz}\). 2024 Medium
- 5. A set of \(20\) tuning forks is arranged in a series of increasing frequencies. If each fork gives \(4\) beats with respect to the preceding fork and the frequency of the last fork is twice the frequency of the first, then the frequency of last fork is \(\dots \; Hz\). 2022 Easy
- 6. The velocity of sound in a gas. in which two wavelengths \(4.08\,m\) and \(4.16\,m\) produce \(40\) beats in \(12\,s\), will be ..............\(ms ^{-1}\) 2022 Easy
- 7. Two travelling waves of equal amplitudes and equal frequencies move in opposite directions along a string. They interfere to produce a stationary wave whose equation is given by \(y=\left(10 \cos \pi x \sin \frac{2 \pi t}{T}\right)\, cm\) The amplitude of the particle at \(x =\frac{4}{3} \,cm\) will be........ \(cm\). 2022 Easy
