Two sound waves of wavelength 10 m and 10.1 m produces 0.33 beats/s. Then the velocity of sound is

A

330 m/s

B

320 m/s

C

310 m/s

D

333.3 m/s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`n_(1) - n_(2) = n`
`(v)/(lamda_(1)) - (v)/(lamda_(2)) = 0.33`
`v[(1)/(10)-(1)/(10.1)] = 0.33`
`v [(10.1 - 10)/(10 xx 10.1)] = 0.33`
`v = (0.33 xx 10 xx 10.1)/(0.1) = 3.3 xx 101`
`= 101 xx (3 + 0.3)`
`= 303 + 30.3`
`= 333.3 m//s`
