The rate of energy transfer in a wave depends:
1. directly on the square of the wave amplitude and square of the wave frequency.
2. directly on the square of the wave amplitude and square root of the wave frequency.
3. directly on the wave frequency and square of the wave amplitude.
4. directly on the wave amplitude and square of the wave frequency.

A tuning fork with a frequency of \(800\) Hz produces resonance in a resonance column tube with the upper end open and the lower end closed by the water surface. Successive resonances are observed at lengths of \(9.75\) cm, \(31.25\) cm, and \(52.75\) cm. The speed of the sound in the air is:
1. \(500\) m/s 2. \(156\) m/s
3. \(344\) m/s 4. \(172\) m/s

A source of sound placed at the open end of a resonance column sends an acoustic wave of pressure amplitude ρ0 inside the tube. If the atmospheric pressure is ρA , then the ratio of maximum and minimum pressure at the closed end of the tube will be :

1. (ρA+ρ0)(ρAρ0)

2. (ρA+2ρ0)(ρA2ρ0)

3. ρAρA

4. ρA+12ρ0ρA-12ρ0
