A is singing a note and at the same time B is singing a note with exactly one eighth the frequency of the note of A. The energies of two sounds are equal, the amplitude of the note of B is

A

Same that of A

B

Twice as that of A

C

Four times as that of A

D

Eight times as that of A

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Energy `prop(A)^(2)(f)^(2)`
`implies (A_(A))/(A_(B))=(f_(B))/(f_(A))implies(A_(B))/(A_(A))=(8)/(1)`
`implies A_(B)=8A_(A)`.
