NEET Physics: Waves — MCQ Test 12

Q6. Two strings produce beats of 4 Hz. If one has a frequency of 256 Hz and the tension in the other is increased, the beat frequency increases to 6 Hz. What was the original frequency of the second string?

Q7. What happens to a transverse wave when it reflects off a fixed end of a string?

Q8. A transverse wave on a string has a speed of 25 m/s and a frequency of 20 Hz. What is its wavelength?

Q9. Why does a standing wave in a pipe closed at one end produce only odd harmonics?

Q10. A transverse wave on a string has a tension of 120 N and a linear mass density of 0.015 kg/m. What is the wavelength if the frequency is 50 Hz?
