If the frequencies of two notes in a medium are in the ratio `3 : 5`, then their propagation constant are in the ratio

A

`3 : 5`

B

`5 : 3`

C

`25 : 9`

D

`9 : 25`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`k_(1)= (2pi)/(lamda_(1)) and k_(2) = (2pi)/(lamda_(2))`
`(k_(1))/(k_(2)) = (lamda_(2))/(lamda_(1)) = (n_(1))/(n_(2)) = (3)/(5)`
