A wave in a string has an amplitude of 2cm. The wave travels in the +ve direction of x axis with a speed of 128 ms-1 and it is noted that 5 complete waves fit in 4 m length of the string. The equation describing the wave is:
y = (0.02)m sin (7.85 x + 1005t)
y = (0.02)m sin (15.7 x - 2010t)
y = (0.02)m sin (15.7 x + 2010t)
y = (0.02)m sin(7.85 x - 1005t)
The velocity of sound in any gas depends upon:
Wavelength of sound only
Density and elasticity of gas
Intensity of sound waves only

Two strings A and B have lengths lA and lB and carry masses MA and MB at their lower ends, the upper ends being supported by rigid supports. If nA and nB are the frequencies of their vibrations and nA = 2nB, then:
lA = 4lB, regardless of masses
lB = 4lA, regardless of masses
MA = 2MB, lA = 2lB
MB = 2MA, lB = 2lA
