A motorcycle starts from rest and accelerates along a straight path at 2 m s-2. At the starting point of the motorcycle, there is a stationary electric siren. How far has the motorcycle gone when the driver hears the frequency of the siren at 94% of its value when the motorcycle was at rest? (speed of sound =330ms-1

Assertion: In a sinusoidal travelling wave on a string, potential energy of deformation of string element at extreme position is maximum.

Reason: The particles in sinusoidal travelling wave perform SHM.
