Solve the previous problem if the friction coefficient between the 2⋅0 kg block and the plane below it is 0⋅5 and the plane below the 4⋅0 kg block is frictionless.

A uniform metre stick of mass 200 g is suspended from the ceiling thorough two vertical strings of equal lengths fixed at the ends. A small object of mass 20 g is placed on the stick at a distance of 70 cm from the left end. Find the tensions in the two strings.

What is the smallest positive phase constant which is equivalent to 7⋅5 π?

A string clamped at both ends vibrates in its fundamental mode. Is there any position (except the ends) on the string which can be touched without disturbing the motion? What if the string vibrates in its first overtone?

The equation \[y = A   \sin^2   \left( kx - \omega t \right)\] 
represents a wave motion with 

A wheel of moment of inertia 0⋅500 kg-m² and radius 20⋅0 cm is rotating about its axis at an angular speed of 20⋅0 rad/s. It picks up a stationary particle of mass 200 g at its edge. Find the new angular speed of the wheel.

A diver having a moment of inertia of 6⋅0 kg-m² about an axis thorough its centre of mass rotates at an angular speed of 2 rad/s about this axis. If he folds his hands and feet to decrease the moment of inertia to 5⋅0 kg-m², what will be the new angular speed?

A boy is seated in a revolving chair revolving at an angular speed of 120 revolutions per minute. Two heavy balls form part of the revolving system and the boy can pull the balls closer to himself or may push them apart. If by pulling the balls closer, the boy decreases the moment of inertia of the system from 6 kg-m² to 2 kg-m², what will be the new angular speed?

A kid of mass M stands at the edge of a platform of radius R which can be freely rotated about its axis. The moment of inertia of the platform is I. The system is at rest when a friend throws a ball of mass m and the kid catches it. If the velocity of the ball is \[\nu\] horizontally along the tangent to the edge of the platform when it was caught by the kid, find the angular speed of the platform after the event.

If you are walking on the moon, can you hear the sound of stones cracking behind you? Can you hear the sound of your own footsteps?

Can you hear your own words if you are standing in a perfect vacuum? Can you hear your friend in the same conditions?

Two loudspeakers are arranged facing each other at some distance. Will a person standing behind one of the loudspeakers clearly hear the sound of the other loudspeaker or the clarity will be seriously damaged because of the 'collision' of the two sounds in between?

The voice of a person, who has inhaled helium, has a remarkably high pitch. Explain on the basis of resonant  vibration of vocal cord filled with air and with helium.

Two blocks of masses 400 g and 200 g are connected through a light string going over a pulley which is free to rotate about its axis. The pulley has a moment of inertia \[1 \cdot 6 \times  {10}^{- 4}   kg -  m^2\] and a radius 2⋅0 cm, Find (a) the kinetic energy of the system as the 400 g block falls through 50 cm, (b) the speed of the blocks at this instant.

The pulley shown in the following figure has a radius of 20 cm and moment of inertia 0⋅2 kg-m². The string going over it is attached at one end to a vertical spring of spring constant 50 N/m fixed from below, and supports a 1 kg mass at the other end. The system is released from rest with the spring at its natural length. Find the speed of the block when it has descended through 10 cm. Take g = 10 m/s².

When we clap our hands, the sound produced is best described by Here p denotes the change in pressure from the equilibrium value.

A tuning fork sends sound waves in air. If the temperature of the air increases, which of the following parameters will change?

When sound wave is refracted from air to water, which of the following will remain unchanged?
