  2. Which vibration will produce sound of maximum shrillness (or pitch) and why?
  3. What is the ratio of wavelength of vibrations P and R?

उत्तर

(a) R will produce maximum sound because it has maximum amplitude.

(b) P will produce maximum shrillness because it has a maximum frequency.

(c) Let's suppose the string has length l

Then wavelength of P = `"2 l"/3`

Wavelength of R = 2 l

∴ `lambda_"P"/lambda_"R" = ("2 l"/3)/"2 l" = 1/3`

∴ λp : λR = 1 : 3
