A transverse wave propagating along the \(x\text-\)axis is represented by:
\(y(x,t)=8.0\sin\left(0.5\pi x-4\pi t-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\), where \(x\) is in meters and \(t\) in seconds. The speed of the wave is:
1. \(4\pi\) m/s
2. \(0.5\) m/s
3. \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) m/s
4. \(8\) m/s

A : The propagation of sound in air should be an isothermal process.
R : As air is bad conductor of heat, its temperature does not change by compression or expansion.
The driver of a car travelling at a speed of 30 m/s towards a hill sounds a horn of frequency 600 Hz. If the velocity of sound in air is 330 m/s, the frequency of reflected sound as heard by the driver is:

2. 555.5 Hz
3. 720 Hz
4. 500 Hz
