This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Displacement of an elastic wave y =3sinwt+4coswt

3= acos

4=asin

On dividing above equation

tan =4/3

= t a n - 4 3

a2cos2 +a2sin2 = 32+42

a2 (cos2 + s i n 2 )=25

a2.1=25

a=5

Y= 5cos s i n w t +5sin c o s w t

= 5 [cos s i n w t + s i n c o s w t ]=5sin (wt+ )

= t a n - 1 4 3

Hence amplitude =5cm

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Frequency of tuning fork A

v A = 512 Hz

Probable frequency of tuning fork B

v B = v A + 5 = 512 ± 5 = 517 Hz or 507Hz

When B is loaded its frequency reduces .

If it is 517Hz it might reduced to 507Hz given again a beat of 5Hz

If it 507Hz reduction will always increase the beat frequency, hence v B = 517 Hz

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

As the organ pipe is open at both ends, hence for first harmonic

l= λ 2

λ = 2 l

V=c/2l

For pipe closed at one end

V'=c/4L'

Hence v=v'

c/2L =c/4L'

L'/L=2/4=1/2

L'=L/2

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Wire of twice the length vibrates in its second harmonic . thus, if the tuning fork resonates at L, it will resonate at 2L

So the sonometer frequency is

v = n 2 l T m

Now if it vibrates with length L we assume v = v 1

n=n1

v = n 2 L T m

When length is doubled then

v 2 = n 1 2 * 2 L T m

Dividing above equations

v 1 v 2 = n 1 n 2 * 2

To Keep the resonance v 1 v 2 = 1 = n 1 n 2 * 2

n2=2n1 so it resonates 2nd harmonic.

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Wave functions y= 2cos2 π (10t-0.0080x + 3.5)

= 2cos(20 π t - 0.016 π x + 7 π )

Now standard equation of travelling wave can be written as

Y= a cos (wt-kx+ )

So by comparing with above equation

a= 2cm

w=20 π r a d / s

k=0.016 π

path difference =4cm

(a) phase difference ?=2πλ* path difference

?=0.016π*4*100

=6.4πrad

(b) ?=2πλ*0.5*100=0.8πrad

(c) ?=2πλ*λ2=πrad

(d) ?=2πλ*3λ4=3π2rad

(e) T= 2π /w=2 π /20 π=1/10s

At x=100cm

t=T

1 =20 πT-0.016π100+7π

= 20 π110-1.6π+7π=2π-1.6π+7π

Again at x=100cm t=5s

2 =20 πT-0.016π100+7π

=100 π-1.6π+7π

From above two equation phase difference 2-1

=(100 π-1.6π+7π )- 2π-1.6π+7π

= 100

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

standard equation of a progressive wave is given by

Y=asin(wt-kx+ )

 This is travelling along positive x- direction

Given equation is y=5sin(100 π t - 0.4 π x )

Comparing with standard equation

(a) amplitude =5m

(b) k=2 π γ =0.4x

wavelength =2 π k = 2 π 0.4 π = 20 4 = 5 m

(c) w=10 π

w=2 π v = 100 π

frequency v= 100 π / 2 π =50Hz

(d) wave velocity v = w k w h e r e k i s w a v e n u m b e r a n d k = 2 π / λ

=100 π / 0.4 π =1000/4

250m/s

(e) y= 5sin(100 π t - 0.4 π x )

dy/dt = particle velocity

dy/dt = 5(100 π ) cos[100 π t - 0.4 π x ]

for particle velocity amplitude (dy/dt)max which will be for cos[100 π t - 0.4 π x ]max=1

so particle velocity amplitude =(dy/dt)max =5(100 π ) * 1 =550 π  m/s

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(a) The equation y = 100 cos (100πt + 0.5x ) is representing a travelling wave along x-direction

(b) The equation y = 5 cos (4x ) sin (20t) represents a stationary wave, because it contains sin cos terms ., combinations of two progressive waves.

(c) The equation y = 10 cos [ (252 – 250) πt ] cos [ (252+250)πt ] involving sum and difference of two near by frequencies 252 and 250 have this equation represents beats formation.

(d) As the equation y = y = 4 sin (5x – t/2) + 3 cos (5x – t/2) involves negative sign with x, have if represents a travelling wave along

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

we know that rms speed of molecules of a gas

C= 3 p ρ = 3 R T M

 Where M is the molar mass of the gas

Speed of sound wave in gas v= γ p ρ = γ R T M

On dividing above equation we get

c/v = 3 R T M * M γ R T

c/v = 3 γ

where γ = adiabatic constant for diatomic gas

γ = 7 5

c/v=constant

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Speed of wave in solid =8km/s

Speed of wave in liquid = 5km/s

Required time = [ 1000 - 0 8 + 3500 - 1000 5 + 6400 - 3500 8 ] * 2

= [ 1000 8 + 2500 5 + 2900 8 ] * 2

= [125+500+362.5] * 2 =1975       (diameter = radius * 2 )

As we are considering at diametrically opposite point, hence there is a multiplication of 2

This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(b, c, d) velocity of ball before collision =10+1=11m/s

Speed after collision= 10-1=9m/s

As the speed is changing after travelling 10 m and speed is 1m/s hence, time duration of the changing speed is 10

Since the collision of the ball is perfectly elastic there is no dissipation of energy hence, total momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

Since the train is moving with constant velocity hence, it will act as inertial frame of reference as that of earth and acceleration will be same in both cases.

As the collision is perfectly elastic so momentum and total energy (K.E and
