  • question_answer
    Two sound waves of wavelengths 5m and 6m formed 30 beats in 3 seconds. The velocity of sound is                                                                                           [EAMCET 2001]

    A)            300 ms?1                                 

    B)            310 ms?1

    C)            320 ms?1                                 

    D)            330 ms?1

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       No of beats, x =\[\Delta n=\frac{30}{3}=10\,Hz\]                    Þ Also\[\Delta n=v\left[ \frac{1}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{\lambda }_{2}}} \right]=v\,\left[ \frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{6} \right]\]=10Þ\[v=300\]m/s
