$A$ narrow tube is bent in the form of a circle of radius $R,$ as shown in the figure. Two small holes $S$ and $D$ are made in the tube at positions right-angled to each other. $A$ source placed at $S$ generates a wave of intensity $I_0$ which is equally divided into two parts: one part travels along the longer path,while the other travels along the shorter path. Both the waves meet at point $D$ where a detector is placed. If a maxima is formed at the detector,then the possible values for the wavelength $\lambda$ of the wave produced are given by:

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.

$A$ composite string is made up by joining two strings of different masses per unit length $\mu$ and $4\mu$. The composite string is under the same tension. $A$ transverse wave pulse $Y = (6 \text{ mm}) \sin(5t + 40x)$,where $t$ is in seconds and $x$ in meters,is sent along the lighter string towards the joint. The percentage of power transmitted to the heavier string through the joint is approximately ..... $\%$
