$A$ 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 point $D$ where a detector is placed. If a maxima is formed at the detector,then the possible values for the wavelength $\lambda$ of the wave produced are given by:

$A$ pipe open at one end has length $0.8 \,m$. At the open end of the tube, a string $0.5 \,m$ long is vibrating in its $1^{\text{st}}$ overtone and resonates with the fundamental frequency of the pipe. If the tension in the string is $50 \,N$, what is the mass of the string (in $\,g$)? (Speed of sound $= 320 \,m/s$)

Given below are some functions of $x$ and $t$ to represent the displacement (transverse or longitudinal) of an elastic wave. State which of these represent $(i)$ a travelling wave,$(ii)$ a stationary wave or $(iii)$ none at all:
$(a)$ $y = 2 \cos(3x) \sin(10t)$
$(b)$ $y = 2 \sqrt{x - vt}$
$(c)$ $y = 3 \sin(5x - 0.5t) + 4 \cos(5x - 0.5t)$
$(d)$ $y = \cos x \sin t + \cos 2x \sin 2t$

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

The superposing waves are represented by the following equations: ${y_1} = 5\sin 2\pi (10t - 0.1x)$ and ${y_2} = 10\sin 2\pi (20t - 0.2x)$. The ratio of intensities $\frac{I_{\max}}{I_{\min}}$ will be:
