HARD
JEE Main/Advance
IMPORTANT

A transverse sine wave moves along a string in the positive x-direction at a speed of 20 cm s-1. The wavelength of the wave is 1 m and its amplitude is 10 cm. The snapshot of the wave is shown in the figure. The acceleration and velocity of point P whose displacement at this instant is 5 cm are ap and vp respectively. Then

IMPORTANT

A wave disturbance in a medium is described by yx, t=0.04cos50πt+π2cos10πx, where x and y are in meters and'f' is in seconds.
(i) Displacement node occurs at x=0.15 m
(ii) At t=150 s, particle at x=0.20 m will be moving with speed 2π m s-1
(iii) At t=1100 s, particle at x=115 m will beat a displacement of 0.02 m from it's own mean position
(N) At t=3100 s, particle at x=115 m will beat a displacement of 0.02 m from it's own mean position

HARD
JEE Main/Advance
IMPORTANT

A taut string (fixed at both ends) vibrates in its mth overtone. The minimum distance between two points which is vibrating with maximum possible amplitude A and half of the maximum possible amplitude A2 respectively is'd'. Then length'L' of the string is

IMPORTANT

Three waves are propagating in same direction and pass through a point simultaneously. The variation of electric field with time is as

E1=E0cosωt, E2=2E0sinωt and
E3=5E0cosωt+53°; and intensity due to
first wave at that point is I0. Then

A string of length 50 cm and mass 2.5 g is fixed at both ends with a tension of 52 N. A closed organ pipe has length 85 cm. The string vibrates in its second overtone and the air column in the pipe in its first overtone. Neglect the end correction in the pipe and the speed of sound in air is 340 m s-1. Then
