How far will a `200 hz` sound travel as compared to an `800 Hz` sound ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`16 times`(as attenuation of the sound wave increase as the square of the frequency : attenuation means redution in intensity of a sound wave as it travels in a medium).

Does a 220 Hz sound wave move faster, slower, or at the same speed as a 440 Hz sound wave ?

A sound consists of four frequencies : 300 Hz , 600 Hz,1200 Hz and 2400 Hz . A sound 'filter' is made by passing this sound through a bifurcate pipe as shown . The sound wave has to travel a distance of 50 cm more in the right branch - pipe than in the straight pipe. The speed of sound in air is 300 m//s . Then , which of the following frequencies will be almost completely muffled or 'silenced' at the outlet?

Two tuning forks A and B of frequencies 200 Hz and 400 Hz are vibrated simultaneously. Then, the ratio of time taken by the sound produced by A and B to travel 660 m and 990 m, respectively in air is ______ (velocity of the sound in air = 330 m s^(-1) )
