$A$ pipe open at one end has length $0.8 \,m$. At the open end of the tube, a string $0.5 \,m$ long is vibrating in its $1^{\text{st}}$ overtone and resonates with the fundamental frequency of the pipe. If the tension in the string is $50 \,N$, what is the mass of the string (in $\,g$)? (Speed of sound $= 320 \,m/s$)

$A$ massless rod is suspended by two identical strings $AB$ and $CD$ of equal length. $A$ block of mass $m$ is suspended from point $O$ such that $BO$ is equal to $x$. Further,it is observed that the frequency of the $1^{st}$ harmonic (fundamental frequency) in $AB$ is equal to the $2^{nd}$ harmonic frequency in $CD$. Then,the length of $BO$ is:

State whether the following statements are True or False:
$(i)$ Compared to moist air,the speed of sound is greater in dry air.
$(ii)$ When the prongs of a tuning fork are rubbed,its frequency decreases.
$(iii)$ In the case of a stationary wave,the amplitudes of particles in any one loop are the same.
$(iv)$ In the case of a stationary wave,the amplitude of a particle decreases from node to antinode.

Two uniform strings of mass per unit length $\mu$ and $4 \mu$,and length $L$ and $2 L$,respectively,are joined at point $O$,and tied at two fixed ends $P$ and $Q$,as shown in the figure. The strings are under a uniform tension $T$. If we define the frequency $v_0=\frac{1}{2 L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$,which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ With a node at $O$,the minimum frequency of vibration of the composite string is $v_0$
$(B)$ With an antinode at $O$,the minimum frequency of vibration of the composite string is $2 v_0$
$(C)$ When the composite string vibrates at the minimum frequency with a node at $O$,it has $6$ nodes,including the end nodes
$(D)$ No vibrational mode with an antinode at $O$ is possible for the composite string

In the Kundt's tube experiment (shown in fig. $(i)$),the rod is clamped at the center. In the modified experiment (shown in fig. $(ii)$),the rod is clamped at the end. It is known that the speed of sound in air is $330\ m/s$,the powder piles up at successive distances of $0.6\ m$,and the length of the rod used is $1\ m$. Calculate the speed of sound in the rod in $m/s$.

An earthquake generates both transverse $(S)$ and longitudinal $(P)$ waves in the Earth. The speed of $S$ waves is about $4.5 \, km/s$ and that of $P$ waves is about $8.0 \, km/s$. $A$ seismograph records $P$ and $S$ waves from an earthquake. The first $P$ wave arrives $4.0 \, min$ before the first $S$ wave. The epicenter of the earthquake is located at a distance of about .... $km$.
