Calculate the frequency of beats produce...

Calculate the frequency of beats produced in air when two sources of sound are activated, one emitting a wavelength of 32 cm and the other of 32.2 cm. The speed of sound in air is `350 ms^-1`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C, D
Group I,
Given `V=350, I_1=32cm =32x10^-2m`
So `eta_1 =frequency`
350/(32xx10^-2)=1093Hz`
Group II
`V=350, lamda_2=32.2cm`
`=32.2xx10^-2m`
`eta_2=350/(32.2xx10^-2)`
`=1086Hz`
So, beat frequency =1093=7Hz

A string 25cm long and having a mass of 2.5 gm is under tension. A pipe closed at one end is 40cm long. When the string is set vibrating in its first overtone and the air in the pipe in its fundamental frequency, 8 beats per second are heard. It is observed that decreasing the tension in the string decreases beat frequency. If the speed of sound in air is 320m//s , find the tension in the string.
