In the Kundt's tube experiment (shown in fig. $(i)$),the rod is clamped at the center. In the modified experiment (shown in fig. $(ii)$),the rod is clamped at the end. It is known that the speed of sound in air is $330\ m/s$,the powder piles up at successive distances of $0.6\ m$,and the length of the rod used is $1\ m$. Calculate the speed of sound in the rod in $m/s$.

$A$ pipe closed at one end has a length of $0.8 \ m$. At its open end,a $0.5 \ m$ long uniform string is vibrating in its second harmonic and it resonates with the fundamental frequency of the pipe. If the tension in the wire is $50 \ N$ and the speed of sound is $320 \ m/s$,the mass of the string is: (in $g$)

$A$ man standing in front of a mountain beats a drum at regular intervals. The rate of drumming is gradually increased and he finds that the echo is not heard distinctly when the rate becomes $40$ per minute. He then moves nearer to the mountain by $90 \ m$ and finds that the echo is again not heard when the drumming rate becomes $60$ per minute. The distance between the mountain and the initial position of the man is .... $m$

An air column in a tube $32 \,cm$ long, closed at one end, is in resonance with a tuning fork. The air column in another tube, open at both ends, of length $66 \,cm$ is in resonance with another tuning fork. When these two tuning forks are sounded together, they produce $8$ beats per second. Then the frequencies of the two tuning forks are (Consider fundamental frequencies only):

$A$ rod of length $L$ and negligible mass is suspended by two identical strings $AB$ and $CD$ as shown in the figure. $A$ mass $M$ is suspended from point $O$ which is at a distance $x$ from $B$. If the frequency of the first harmonic of $AB$ is equal to the frequency of the second harmonic of $CD$, then the value of $x$ is
