The equation of a standing wave in a string is \(y = (200~\text{m})\sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{50}x\right)\cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{0.01}t\right)\) where \(x\) is in metres and \(t\) is in seconds. At the position of antinode, how many times does the distance of a string particle become \(200~\text{m}\) from its mean position in one second?
1. \(100~\text{times}\) 2. \(50~\text{times}\)
3. \(200~\text{times}\) 4. \(400~\text{times}\)

Eleven tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequency in such a way that any two consecutive tuning forks produce \(4\) beats per second. The highest frequency is twice that of the lowest. The highest and the lowest frequencies (in Hz) are, respectively:
1. \(100~\text{and}~50\) 2. \(44~\text{and}~22\)
3. \(80~\text{and}~40\) 4. \(72~\text{and}~30\)
