  1. The speed of a wave of frequency 100 Hz and wavelength 3.4 m is:

    • 1 340 m/s
    • 2 3.4 m/s
    • 3 34 m/s
    • 4 103.4 m/s
    Show answer

    Correct answer: 340 m/s

    v = f x wavelength = 340 m/s.

  2. The beat frequency of two sources of 256 Hz and 260 Hz is:

    • 1 2 Hz
    • 2 4 Hz
    • 3 258 Hz
    • 4 516 Hz
    Show answer

    Correct answer: 4 Hz

    Beat frequency = difference = 4 Hz.

  3. In a stationary wave the points of zero amplitude are:

    • 1 Wavefronts
    • 2 Nodes
    • 3 Crests
    • 4 Antinodes
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Nodes

    Nodes are the points where the amplitude is zero.

  4. The Doppler effect is a change in the observed:

    • 1 Mass
    • 2 Amplitude only
    • 3 Frequency due to relative motion
    • 4 Speed of light
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Frequency due to relative motion

    Relative motion of source and observer changes the observed frequency.

  5. The fundamental frequency of a string of length L and wave speed v fixed at both ends is:

    • 1 2 v / L
    • 2 v / 2L
    • 3 v / L
    • 4 v L
    Show answer

    Correct answer: v / 2L

    The string holds half a wavelength: f = v / 2L.
