JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 8th April Morning Slot - No. 13)

JEE Main 2019 (Online) 8th April Morning Slot Physics - Waves Question 93 English A wire of length 2L, is made by joining two wires A and B of same length but different radii r and 2r and made of the same material. It is vibrating at a frequency such that the joint of the two wires forms a node. If the number of antinodes in wire A is p and that in B is q then the ratio p : q is :
3 : 5
4 : 9
1 : 2
1 : 4

Explanation

Let mass per unit length of wires are $$\mu $$1 and $$\mu $$2 respectively

$$ \because $$ Materials are same, so density $$\rho $$ will be same.

$$ \therefore $$ $${\mu _1} = {{\rho \pi {r^2}L} \over L} = \mu $$ and $${\mu _2} = {{\rho 4\pi {r^2}L} \over L} = 4\mu $$

Tension in both are same = T, let speed of wave in wires are V1 and V2

$${V_1} = {{{V_1}} \over {2L}} = {V \over {2L}}\,\,\& \,{V_2} = {{{V_2}} \over {2L}} = {V \over {4L}}$$

Frequency at which both resonate is L.C.M. of both frequencies (i.e : $${V \over {2L}}$$ )

Hence number of loops in wires are 1 and 2 respectively

So, ratio of number of antinodes is 1 : 2.
