The wavelength of the notes produced by ...

The wavelength of the notes produced by two forks of frequency 256 Hz and 512 Hz, then the ratio of their wavelength is

A

`2:1`

B

`sqrt2:1`

C

`1:2`

D

`1:sqrt2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`n_1/n_2= lamda_2/lamda_1`
`therefore lamda_1/lamda_2= n_2/n_1 = 512/256 = 2/1`
