  1. 1. The velocity of sound in air is doubled when the temperature is raised from \(0^{\circ} C\) to \(\alpha^{\circ} C\). The value of \(\alpha\) is ________. 2026 Medium
  2. 2. Consider the sound wave travelling in ideal gases of \(\mathrm{He}, \mathrm{CH}_4\), and \(\mathrm{CO}_2\). All the gases have the same ratio \(\frac{P}{\rho}\), where \(P\) is the pressure and \(\rho\) is the density. The ratio of the speed of sound through the gases \(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{He}}: \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{CH}_4}: \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{CO}_2}\) is given by 2025 Medium
  3. 3. Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason \(\mathbf{R}\)
    Assertion A: A sound wave has higher speed in solids than gases.
    Reason R: Gases have higher value of Bulk modulus than solids.
    In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
    2025 Easy
  4. 4. The speed of sound in oxygen at \(S.T.P. \)will be approximately _______. (Given, \(\mathrm{R}=8.3 \mathrm{JK}^{-1}, \gamma=1.4\) ) 2024 Easy
  5. 5. The ratio of speed of sound in hydrogen gas to the speed of sound in oxygen gas at the same temperature is 2023 Easy
  6. 6. Assume that the displacement\((s)\) of air is proportional to the pressure difference \((\Delta p)\) created by a sound wave. Displacement\((s)\) further depends on the speed of sound \((v),\) density of air \((\rho)\) and the frequency \((f)\) If \(\Delta p \approx 10\, Pa , v  \approx 300\, m / s , p  \approx 1\, kg / m ^{3}\) and \(f \approx  1000 \,Hz\), then \(s\) will be the order of (take multiplicative constant to be \(1\) ) 2020 Easy
  7. 7. The pressure wave, \(P = 0.01\,sin\,[1000t -3x]\,Nm^{-2},\) corresponds to the sound produced by a vibrating blade on a day when atmospheric temperature is \(0\,^oC.\) On some other day when temperature is \(T,\) the speed of sound produced by the same blade and at the same frequency is found to be \(336 \,ms^{-1}\). Approximate value of \(T\) is .... \(^oC\) 2019 Medium
  8. 8. A granite rod of \(60\ cm\) length is clamped at its middle point and is set into longitudinal vibrations. The density of granite is \(2.7 \times 10^3 \) \(kg/m^3\) and its Young's modulus is \(9.27 \times 10^{10}\) \(Pa\) What will be the fundamental frequency of the longitudinal vibrations .... \(kHz\) ? 2018 Hard
