An open pipe resonates with a tuning fork of frequency 500 Hz. It is observed that two successive nodes are formed at distance 16 and 46 cm from the open end. The speed of sound in air in the pipe is
230 m/s
300 m/s
320 m/s
360 m/s
A tuning fork A produces 4 beats/s with another tuning fork B of frequency 320 Hz. On filing one of the prongs of A, 4 beat/s are again heard when sounded with the same fork B . Then, the frequency of the fork A before filing is
328 Hz.

The velocity of sound in any gas depends upon
wavelength of sound only
density and elasticity of gas
intensity of sound waves only
amplitude and frequency of sound
A hospital uses an ultrasonic scanner to locate tumours in a tissue. The operating frequency of the scanner is 4.2 MHz. The speed of sound in a tissue is 1.7 km/s. The wavelength of sound in tissue is close to
