1) State any two characteristics of progressive waves.

2) Prove that frequency of beats is equal to the difference between the

frequencies of the two sound notes giving rise to beats.

3) What are harmonics and overtones (Two Points)?

4) Show that all harmonics are present in case of an air column.

5) State the principle of superposition of waves. Distinguish between

forced vibrations and resonance.

6) Explain analytically how stationary waves are formed. What are

nodes and antinodes? Show that distance between two adjacent
𝜆
nodes or antinode is 4.

7) Show that even as well as odd harmonics are present as overtones in

the case of an air column vibrating in a pipe open at both the ends.

8) Explain the reflection of transverse and longitudinal waves from a

denser medium and a rarer medium.

9) Show that beats frequency is equal to frequency difference between

two interfering waves.

10) What is meant by harmonics? Show that only odd harmonics are
present as overtones in the case of an air column vibrating in a pipe
closed at one end.

11) Discuss different modes of vibrations in an air column of a pipe
open at both the ends. State the cause of end correction. Find the
end correction for the pipe open at both the ends in fundamental
mode.

12) Explain the formation of stationary wave by analytical method.

Show that nodes and antinodes are equally spaced in a stationary
wave.

13) Explain analytically how the stationary waves are formed. Hence
𝜆
show that the distance between node and adjacent antinode is 4.

14) Show that all harmonics are present on a stretched string between
two rigid supports.

15) Explain what is Doppler effect, in sound and state its any four’
applications.
