1. A person observes the smoke from a gun 1. 4 sec before he hears the bang.
If the gun is 476 m
away from the person, find the speed of sound? 2. A person standing near the cliff fires the gun and heard the echo after 1.5 sec. If the speed of sound in air is 340m/sec, how far is person from the cliff? 3. A sound wave of frequency 5000 Hz travel in air with speed of 350m/sec. Calculate the wave length. 4. If you hear thunder 7sec after you see he lightening, how far you from the lighting occurred? 5. A bat emits ultrasonic wave of frequency 30 Khz..If its speed is 350m/s and bats hear its echo after 0.6 sec after emitting the , find how far is bat from obstacle and wave length of wave? 6. Meera is standing between two hills. She shouted loudly and hears first echo after 0.5 sec and second echo after 1 sec. what is distance between two hills? 7. If 2000 ripples produced in 5 sec in a pond find time period and frequency of ripples formation. 8. A man standing in a valley between two parallel mountains fires a gun and hears echo at an interval of 2 s and 3.5 s. What is (a) The distance between two mountains (b) the location of the man with respect to the mountain? 9. . Calculate the wavelength of a sound whose frequency is 220 Hz and speed is 440m/s in a given medium. 10. . A body is vibrating 6000 times is 1 minute. If the velocity of sound in air is 360 m/s, find 11. A stone is dropped from a 500 m tall building into a pond. When is sound splash heard? Given g =10 m/s2 , speed of sound = 340 m/s. 12. An echo is heard in 3 sec after the emission of sound. If speed of sound in air is 342 m/s, what is the distance of the reflecting surface from the source? 13. A source of wave produces 40 crests and 40 troughs in 0.4sec .Find the frequency of the wave. 14. Water wave enter a dock at a rate of 120 crests per minute. At the dock are 2 poles 12 m apart from each other. a worker watches a particular wave crest pass from one pole to another in 4s.what is the frequency of the wave? 15. A sonar device on a submarine sends out a signal and receives an echo 5 s later. Calculate the speed of sound in water if the distance of the object from the submarine is 3625 m.
