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
Since tension in `I gt` tension in `II rArr V_(I) gt V_(II)` Thus, for same frequency, `lamda_(I) gt lamda_(II)`.

In each situation of Column-I two elelctric dipoles having moments vec(p)_(1) and vec(p)_(1) of same magnitude ("that is ", p_(1)=p_(2)) are placed on x-axis symmetrically about origin in different orientations as shown. In column-II certain inferences are drawn for these two dipoles. Then match the different orientations of dipole in column-I with the corresponding result in column-II.

Two rectangular blocks, having identical dimensions, an be arranged either in configuration-I or in configuration-II as shown in the figure. One of the blocks has thermal conductivity k and the other 2k. The temperature difference between the ends along the x-axis is the same in both the configurations. It takes 9s to transport a certain amount of heat from the hot end to the cold end in the configuration-I. The time to transport the same amount of heat in the configuration-II is

Two particles each of mass m are connected by a light inextensible string and a particle of mass M is attached to the midpoint of the string. The system is at rest on a smooth horizontal table with string just taut and in a straight line. The particle M is given a velocity v along the table perpendicular to the string. Prove that when the two particles are about to collide : (i) The velocity of M is (Mv)/((M + 2m)) (ii) The speed of each of the other particles is ((sqrt2M (M + m))/((M + 2m)))v .
