String `I` and `II` have identical and linear mass densities, but string `I` is under greater tension than string `II`. The accompanying figure shows four different situations, `A` to `D`, in which standing wave patterns exist on the two strings. In which situation it is possible that strings `I` and `II` are oscillating at the same resonant frequency ?

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`f=(nv)/(2l)`
`v_(I) gt v_(II)`
`:. ` for `f_(I)=f_(II)`
`n_(I) lt n_(II)`

A long string is constructed by joining the ends of two shorter strings. The tension in the strings is the same but string I has 4 times the linear mass density of string II. When a sinusoidal wave passes from string I to string II:

Figure shows different standing wave patterns on a string of linear mass density 4.0 xx 10^-2 kg//m under a tension of 100 N. The amplitude of antinodes is indicated in each figure. The length of the string is 2.0m. (i) Obtain the frequencies of the modes shown in figures (a) and (b). (ii)Write down the transverse displacement y as a function of x and t for each mode. (Take the initial configuration of the wire in each mode to be as shown by the dark lines in the figure).

Two strings with linear mass densities mu_(1)=0.1kg//m and mu_(2)=0.3kg//m are joined seamlesly. They are under tension of 20N . A travelling wave of triangular shape is moving from lighter to heavier string.

(i) The equation of wave in a string fixed at both end is y = 2 sin pi t cos pi x . Find the phase difference between oscillations of two points located at x = 0.4 m and x = 0.6 m . (ii) A string having length L is under tension with both the ends free to move. Standing wave is set in the string and the shape of the string at time t = 0 is as shown in the figure. Both ends are at extreme. The string is back in the same shape after regular intervals of time equal to T and the maximum displacement of the free ends at any instant is A. Write the equation of the standing wave.
