Assertion : When we start filling an empty bucket with water, the pitch of sound produced goes on decreasing.
Reason : The frequency of man voice is usually higher than of woman.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

A bucket can be treated as a pipe closed at one end. The frequency of the note produced `=(v)/(4L)`, here L the bucked is filled with water L decreases, hence frequency increases. Therefore, frequency of pitch of sound produced goes on increasing. Also, the frequency of woman voice is usually higher than of man.

When we start filling an empty bucket with water, the pitch of sound produced goes on changing. Why?

Assertion : In our houses when we start switching on different light buttons, main current goes on increasing. Reason : Different connections in houses are in parallel. When we start switching on different light buttons, then net resistance of the circuit decreases. Therefore, main current increases.

Assertion (A) : A child produces a higher pitched sound compared to that of an adult Reason (R): Pitch depends on the frequency of sound.

Assertion: When water in a bucket is whirled fast overhead, the water does not fall out at the top of the ciorcular path. Reason: The centripetal force in this position on water is more than the weight of water.

In general, the voice of a woman has a higher frequency than that of a man.
