उत्तर

The frequency of oscillations is defined as the number of oscillations of a vibrating body per second. It is given by

Frequency = `"Number of Oscillations"/"Total Time"` = `40/4` = 10 Hz

The time required to complete one oscillation is known as the time period. It is given by the inverse of the frequency

Time period  = `1/"Frequency of oscillation"` = `1/10` = 0.1 s

If the amplitude of vibration is large, sound is feeble.


The sound from a mosquito is produced when it vibrates its wings at an average rate of 500 vibrations per second. What is the time period of the vibration?


Name the factor that determines Pitch of the note.


A person is standing at the seashore. An observer on the ship which is anchored in between a vertical cliff and the person on the shore fires a gun. The person on the shore hears two sounds, 2 seconds and 3 seconds after seeing the smoke of the fired gun. If the speed of sound in the air is 320 ms-1 then calculate:

1) the distance between the observer on the ship and the person on the shore.

2) the distance between the cliff and the observer on the ship.


Why is the loudness of sound heard by a plucked wire increased when mounted on a sound board?


Explain the following and illustrate your answer by drawing appropriate diagram:
Frequency


State the characteristics of a musical note on which its pitch, loudness and quality depend.

Draw a diagram to show the waveforms of a pure note and a musical note, of the same pitch and same loudness.


The frequency of the stretched string of a fixed length is f when it is plucked in the middle. Where should it be plucked so that string vibrates with frequency (i) 2f, (ii) 3f?
Draw diagrams to show these vibrations and name them.


Give a scientific reason.

We can hear the movement of a mosquito’s wings but we cannot hear the movement of our hands.
