उत्तर

Given: TA = 0.015 s, TB = 0.025 s

To find: greater frequency (n)

Formula: n = `1/"T"`

Calculation: From formula,

`"n"_"A" = 1/"T"_"A"`

`= 1/0.015`

`= 1/(1.5 xx 10^-2)`

∴ nA = 66.67 Hz        ...(using reciprocal table)

`"n"_"B" = 1/"T"_"B"`

`= 1/0.025`

`= 1/(2.5 xx 10^-2)`

∴ nB = 40 Hz        ...(using reciprocal table)

∴ nA > nB

Sound wave A has a greater frequency than sound B.
