A sonometer wire resonates with a given tuning fork forming standing waves with five antinodes between the two bridges when a mass of 9 kg is suspended from the wire. When this mass is replaced by a mass M, the wire resonates with the same tuning fork forming three antinodes for the same positions of the bridges. The value of M is

A standing wave is maintained in a homogeneous string of corss-sectional area 'S' and density phe . It is formed by the superposition of two waves travelling in opposite directions given by the equation y_(1)=asin(omegat=kx)andy_(2)=2asin(omegat+kx) . The total mechanical energy confined between the sections corresponding to the abjacent antinodes is:

A tiny stone of mass 20 g is tied to a practically massless, inextensible, flexible string and whirled along vertical circles. Speed of the stone is 8 m//s when the centripetal force is exactly equal to the force due to the tension. Calculate minimum and maximum kinetic energies of the stone during the entire circle. Let theta= 0^0 be the angular position of the string, when the stone is at the lowermost position. Determine the angular position of the string when the force due to tension is numerically equal to weight of the stone. Take g = 10 m//s^2 and Length string = 1.8 m
