Question 1:

Answer:

No, we cannot hear the sound of stones. Sound is a mechanical wave and requires a medium to travel; there is no medium on the moon.
No, we cannot hear the sound of our own footsteps because the vibrations of sound waves from the footsteps must travel through our body to reach our ears. By that time however, the sound waves diminish in magnitude.

Answer:

The frequency of sound produced by vibration of vocal chords is amplified by resonance in the voice box. Now resonant frequency is directly proportional to the velocity of sound present in the voice box. Now as Helium has less density than air, velocity of sound in Helium is higher than that in air. Higher velocity of sound in Helium implies that the resonant frequency of the sound in voice chamber filled with Helium will be higher than with air. Thus the voice is high pitched in Helium filled voice box.

Question 6:

The frequency of sound produced by vibration of vocal chords is amplified by resonance in the voice box. Now resonant frequency is directly proportional to the velocity of sound present in the voice box. Now as Helium has less density than air, velocity of sound in Helium is higher than that in air. Higher velocity of sound in Helium implies that the resonant frequency of the sound in voice chamber filled with Helium will be higher than with air.

Answer:

(b) The first overtone may be 400 Hz.
(c) The first overtone may be 600 Hz.
(d) 600 Hz is an overtone.

For an open organ pipe: 
νn=nν1

nth harmonic = (n – 1)th overtone

ν1=200 Hz, ν2=400 Hz, ν3=600 Hz

If the pipe is an open organ pipe, then the 1st overtone is 400 Hz. Option (b) is correct.

Also, υ3 = 600 Hz, i.e., second overtone = 600 Hz.
600 Hz is an overtone. Therefore, option (d) is correct.

If the pipe is a closed organ pipe, then νn=2n-1ν1.

(2n – 1)th harmonic = (n – 1)th overtone

For n = 2:
1st overtone = 3rd harmonic = 3υ1

If the pipe is an open organ pipe, then the 1st overtone is 400 Hz. Option (b) is correct.

Also, υ3 = 600 Hz, i.e., second overtone = 600 Hz.
600 Hz is an overtone. Therefore, option (d) is correct.

If the pipe is a closed organ pipe, then νn=2n-1ν1.

(2n – 1)th harmonic = (n – 1)th overtone

Answer:

Given:
Wavelength of sound wave λ = 20 cm

Given:
Speed of sound in air v = 332 ms−1
Velocity of the observer v0 = 3 ms-1
Velocity of the source vs = 0
Frequency of the tuning forks f0 = 256 Hz
The apparent frequency f1 heard by the man when he is running towards the tuning forks is

Answer:

Given:
Frequency of tuning forks f0  = 512 Hz
Speed of sound in air v = 330 ms−1
Velocity of tuning forks vs = 5.5 ms−1
The apparent frequency f1  heard by the person from the tuning fork on the left is given by:

  f1=vv-vs×f0
On substituting the values in the above equation, we get:

∴ beats produced
=f1-f2
= 520.68 − 503.60 = 17.5 Hz

As the difference is greater than 10 ( persistence of sound for the human ear is 1/10 of a second), the sound gets overlapped and the observer is not able to distinguish between the sounds and the beats.

Velocity of source vs = 108 kmh-1 = 108×100060×60=30 ms-1
Frequency of the source n0 = 500 Hz

Given:
Velocity of sound in air v = 340 m/s
Velocity of source vs = 108 kmh-1 = 108×100060×60=30 ms-1
Frequency of the source n0 = 500 Hz

(a) Since the velocity of the passenger with respect to the train is zero, he will hear at a frequency of 500 Hz.

(b) Since the observer is moving away from the source while the source is at rest:

     Velocity of observer vo =
     Frequency of sound heard by person standing near the track is given by:

      n=vv+vsn0

     Substituting the values, we get:

     n=340340+30×500=459 Hz

(c) When medium (wind) starts blowing towards the east:

     Velocity of medium vm = 36 kmh-1 = 36×518 = 10 ms-1

     The frequency heard by the passenger is unaffected (= 500 Hz).

     However, frequency heard by person standing near the track is given by:

     n=v+vmv+vm+vs×n0  =340+10340+10+30×500  =458 Hz

Answer:

Given:
Velocity of sound in air v = 330 ms−1
 
(a) Frequency of whistle n0= 1600 Hz
     Velocity of source vs = 12 km/h = 12×518=103 ms-1
     Velocity of an observer v0 = 0 ms−1
     Frequency of whistle received by wall n = ?
     Frequency of sound received by the observer is given by:

      n = v + v0v - vs×n0

On substituting the respective values in the above formula, we get:

     n=330+0330-103×1600=1616 Hz
(b) Here,
     Velocity of observer v0 = 103 ms-1
     Velocity of source vs = 0
     Frequency of source n0 = 1616 Hz
    Frequency of sound heard by observer is
    n=v+v0v+vs×n0

   On substituting the respective values in the above formula, we get:

   =330+103330+0×1616=1632 Hz

     Velocity of an observer v0 = 0 ms−1
     Frequency of whistle received by wall n = ?
     Frequency of sound received by the observer is given by:

      n = v + v0v - vs×n0

On substituting the respective values in the above formula, we get:

     n=330+0330-103×1600=1616 Hz
(b) Here,
     Velocity of observer v0 = 103 ms-1
     Velocity of source vs = 0
     Frequency of source n0 = 1616 Hz
    Frequency of sound heard by observer is
    n=v+v0v+vs×n0

   On substituting the respective values in the above formula, we get:

   =330+103330+0×1616=1632 Hz

Answer:

Given:
Velocity of sound in air v = 330 ms−1
Frequency of signal emitted by the source n0 = 1600 Hz

Velocity of source vs = 72 kmh−1 = 72×518 = 20 ms-1

As the sound gets reflected, therefore:

Velocity of source ( vs ) = Velocity of observer ( vL )

Velocity of sound heard by the observer is given by:

n=v+vLv-vs×n0

On substituting the values, we get:

n = 330-20330+20×1600=1417 Hz

The frequency of the reflected signal as heard by the person is 1417 Hz.

Answer:

Given:
 Velocity of sound in air v = 324 ms−1
 Frequency of sound sent by source n0 = 400 Hz
 Let the speed of the car be x m/s.
 The frequency of sound heard at the car is given by:
      n=v+vcarv×n0 n=324+x324×400   .....1

Answer:

Given:
Speed of sound in air v = 330 ms−1
Frequency of sound f0 = 4000 Hz
Velocity of source vs = 22 m/s
The apparent frequency heard by the listener f = ?

At t = 0, let the source be at a distance of y from the origin. Now, the time taken by the sound
to reach the listener is the same as the time taken by the sound to reach the origin.
∴​ 
y22=660+y2330 15y2=6602+y2 224y2=6602y=660224

Velocity of source along the line joining the source S and listener L:

Answer:


Given:
Velocity of the source vs = 170 m/s
Frequency of the source f0 = 1200 Hz
(a)
     
As shown in the figure,
the time taken by the sound to reach the listener is the same as the time taken by the sound to reach the point of intersection.

y170=2002+y2340 2y2=2002+y2 4y2-y2=20023y2=2002y=2003
Frequency of source will be:
vscosθ = 170.y2002+y2=170×12=85

The frequency of sound f heard by the detector is given by:

f=vv-vs cos v×f0f=340340-170×12×1200f=1600 Hz

∴ Distance 

=2002+x2=2002+1002=224 m

Answer:

Let d be the initial distance between the source and the observer.
If v is the speed of sound emitted by the observer, then the time taken by the sound to reach the observer is given by:
T1 = d/v
The source is also moving. Therefore, at t = T, it moves a distance of (s) and is given by:
s=0×T+12aT2

Time taken by the pulse to reach the observer:
 d-12aT2v

Time difference t between the two pulses:

T+d-12aT2v-dv =T-aT22v

On replacing u = 1T

the apparent frequency will be:

1t=
2uv22uv-a.
