Question
Figure X shows a trace of a sound wave produced by a particular tuning fork :
(a) On the graph paper given in Figure Y, draw a trace of the sound wave which has a higher frequency than that shown in figure X.
(b) On the graph paper show in Figure Z, draw a trace of the sound wave which has a larger amplitude than that shown in Figure X.

Solution
(a) Higher frequency sound wave in comparison to sound wave produced by the tuning fork in X.

A sound producing body is at considerable distance from a man. There can be four different media W, X, Y and Z between the sound producing body and the man. The medium X brings the sound to man most quickly whereas medium Z takes the maximum time. The time taken by medium W in bringing sound to man is less than that of X but more than that of Z. The medium Y, however, fails to bring the sound from the sound producing body to the man. Which medium could be the one :
(a) having on fixed shape and no fixed volume?
(b) having a fixed volume but no fixed shape?
(c) having the same composition as that on the moon?
(d) having a fixed shape and a fixed volume?
