The ends of a stretched wire of length L are fixed at x = 0 and x = L. In one experiment the displacement of the wire is $y_1=A\, sin\bigg(\frac{\pi x}{L}\bigg)sin\, \omega t$ and energy is $E_1$ and in other experiment its displacement is $y_2=A\, sin\bigg(\frac{2\pi x}{L}\bigg)sin\, 2\, \omega\, t$ and energy is $E_2$ .Then
- $E_2 = E_1$
- $E_2 = 2E_1$
- $E_2 = 4E_1$
- $E_2 = 16E_1$
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Therefore, $\hspace20mm E_2=4E_1$

Consider a system of three connected strings, $ S_1, S_2 $ and $ S_3 $ with uniform linear mass densities $ \mu \, \text{kg/m}, 4\mu \, \text{kg/m} $ and $ 16\mu \, \text{kg/m} $, respectively, as shown in the figure. $ S_1 $ and $ S_2 $ are connected at point $ P $, whereas $ S_2 $ and $ S_3 $ are connected at the point $ Q $, and the other end of $ S_3 $ is connected to a wall. A wave generator $ O $ is connected to the free end of $ S_1 $. The wave from the generator is represented by $ y = y_0 \cos(\omega t - kx) $ cm, where $ y_0, \omega $ and $ k $ are constants of appropriate dimensions. Which of the following statements is/are correct:
- Let \( \lambda_e \), \( \lambda_p \), and \( \lambda_d \) be the wavelengths associated with an electron, a proton, and a deuteron, all moving with the same speed. Then the correct relation between them is:
- A closed organ and an open organ tube filled by two different gases having the same bulk modulus but different densities \( \rho_1 \) and \( \rho_2 \), respectively. The frequency of the 9th harmonic of the closed tube is identical with the 4th harmonic of the open tube. If the length of the closed tube is 10 cm and the density ratio of the gases is \( \rho_1 : \rho_2 = 1 : 16 \), then the length of the open tube is:

Waves
Waves are a disturbance through which the energy travels from one point to another. Most acquainted are surface waves that tour on the water, but sound, mild, and the movement of subatomic particles all exhibit wavelike properties. inside the most effective waves, the disturbance oscillates periodically (see periodic movement) with a set frequency and wavelength.
Types of Waves:
Transverse Waves -
Waves in which the medium moves at right angles to the direction of the wave.
Examples of transverse waves:
- Water waves (ripples of gravity waves, not sound through water)
- Light waves
- S-wave earthquake waves
- Stringed instruments
- Torsion wave
The high point of a transverse wave is a crest. The low part is a trough.
Longitudinal Wave -
A longitudinal wave has the movement of the particles in the medium in the same dimension as the direction of movement of the wave.
Examples of longitudinal waves:
- Sound waves
- P-type earthquake waves
- Compression wave
