A sound source capable of producing sound of variable frequencies is located at a distance of 1 m from a reflecting wall as shown in the figure. A detector D is lying at a point shown in the figure. The various distances are also indicated. If the speed of sound in air is 340" "ms^(-1) , find the frequencies of sound within the audible range, which will have maximum intensity at detector?

A sound sources, detector and a movable wall are arranged as shown in figure. In this arrangement detectir us detacting the maximum intensity. If the speed of sound is 330 m//s in air and frequency of source is 660 Hz , then find the minimum distance by which the wall should be moved away from source, so that detector dtects minimmum intensity.
