Two speakers connected to the same source of fixed frequency are placed $2.0 \ m$ apart in a box. $A$ sensitive microphone placed at a distance of $4.0 \ m$ from their midpoint along the perpendicular bisector shows maximum response. The box is slowly rotated until the speakers are in line with the microphone. The distance between the midpoint of the speakers and the microphone remains unchanged. Exactly five maximum responses are observed in the microphone in doing this. The wavelength of the sound wave is .... $m$

$A$ narrow tube is bent in the form of a circle of radius $R,$ as shown in the figure. Two small holes $S$ and $D$ are made in the tube at positions right-angled to each other. $A$ source placed at $S$ generates a wave of intensity $I_0$ which is equally divided into two parts: one part travels along the longer path,while the other travels along the shorter path. Both the waves meet at the point $D$ where a detector is placed. The maximum intensity produced at $D$ is given by

$A$ vibrating string of length $\ell$ under a tension $T$ resonates with a mode corresponding to the first overtone (third harmonic) of an air column of length $75 \,cm$ inside a tube closed at one end. The string also generates $4$ beats per second when excited along with a tuning fork of frequency $n$. Now, when the tension of the string is slightly increased, the number of beats reduces to $2$ per second. Assuming the velocity of sound in air to be $340 \,m/s$, the frequency $n$ of the tuning fork in $Hz$ is:

The frequency of a stretched uniform wire of length $L$ under tension is in resonance with the fundamental frequency of a closed pipe of same length. If the tension in the wire is increased by $8 \ N$,it is in resonance with the first overtone of the same closed pipe. The initial tension in the wire is (in $N$)
