$A$ 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:

$A$ parallel beam of light is incident on a tank filled with water up to a height of $61.5 \,mm$ as shown in the figure below. Ultrasonic waves of frequency $0.5 \,MHz$ are sent along the length of the water column using a transducer placed at the top and they form longitudinal standing waves in the water. Which of the schematic plots below best describes the intensity distribution of the light as seen on the screen? (Take the speed of sound in water to be $1500 \,m/s$)

$A$ pipe closed at one end has a length of $0.8 \ m$. At its open end,a $0.5 \ m$ long uniform string is vibrating in its second harmonic and it resonates with the fundamental frequency of the pipe. If the tension in the wire is $50 \ N$ and the speed of sound is $320 \ m/s$,the mass of the string is: (in $g$)

$A$ 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:
