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.

An earthquake generates both transverse (S) and longitudinal (P) sound waves in the earth. The speed of S waves is about 4.5 km s -1 and that of P waves is about 8.0 km s -1. A seismograph records P and S waves from an earthquake. The first P wave arrives 4.0 min before the first S wave. The epicentre of the earthquake is located at a distance of
25 km

If the amplitude of sound is doubled and the frequency reduced to one-fourth, the intensity of sound at the same point will
increase by a factor of 2
decrease by a factor of 2
decrease by a factor of 4
remains unchanged
