NEET Physics: Waves — MCQ Test 20

Q6. A transverse wave on a string has a tension of 225 N and a linear mass density of 0.025 kg/m. What is the wavelength if the frequency is 30 Hz?

Q7. A pipe closed at one end has a length of 0.25 m. What is the frequency of its third harmonic if the speed of sound is 340 m/s?

Q8. A string of length 2.4 m fixed at both ends has a wave speed of 72 m/s. What is the frequency of its fifth harmonic?

Q9. Two strings produce beats of 8 Hz. One has a frequency of 440 Hz. When the tension in the second string is increased, the beat frequency becomes 6 Hz. What was the original frequency of the second string?

Q10. A stationary wave on a string is given by \( y = 0.08 \sin (2\pi x) \cos (100\pi t) \), where \( x \) and \( y \) are in meters and \( t \) in seconds. What is the distance between two consecutive nodes?
