Humans can hear sound up to the highest frequency of 20,000 Hz. If the wavelength of sound in air at this frequency at a temperature of 20° would be

  • 5.7×10-2
  • 3.7×10-2
  • 1.7×10-2
  • 2.7×10-2

The speed of sound in air depends on the

  • chemical conditions
  • Physical conditions
  • pitch
  • Area

Sound waves can be transmitted by any

  • medium
  • vacuum
  • empty
  • none of above

Astronauts in space communicate with each other by radio links because

  • Sound waves travel slowly in space
  • sound waves can't travel in space
  • sound waves travel fast in space
  • sound waves have low frequency

The loudness of sound is directly proportional to

  • intensity
  • area
  • pitch
  • log of intensity

Sounds of frequency higher than 20,000 Hz which are inaudible to normal human ear are called

  • noise
  • frequency
  • ultrasonic
  • amplitude

To communicate with each other, Elephants use

  • low frequency sound waves
  • low frequency light waves
  • high frequency sound waves
  • low frequency heat waves

The technique or method to absorb undesirable sounds by soft and porous surface is called

  • acoustic protection
  • unacoustic protection
  • audible protection
  • decibel protection

The area and loudness are

  • inversely related
  • directly related
  • not related at all
  • inversely proportional

The loudness and amplitude of sound varies

  • directly
  • inversely
  • Not related
  • proportionally

The speed of sound varies with

  • humidity only
  • temperature only
  • pressure
  • humidity and temperature

A normal human ear can hear a sound only if its frequency lies between

  • 30 Hz to 30,000 Hz
  • 50 Hz to 50,000 Hz
  • 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz
  • 10 Hz to 10,000 Hz

The human ear responds to intensities in range

  • 10-12Wm-2 to 1Wm-2
  • 15Wm-2 to 18Wm-2
  • 108Wm-2 to 2Wm-2
  • 10-3Wm-1 to 10-6Wm-1

The scale to measure the intensity level of sound is called

  • vector scale
  • measuring ruler
  • bel scale
  • decibel scale

To find the speed of sound, we use the relation

  • v = fλ
  • f = vλ
  • lambda = fv
  • v = f + lambda;

The speed of sound in air is

  • 343ms-1
  • 343ms-2
  • 341ms-1
  • 250ms-1

The speed of sound can be found by relation

  • v = cλ
  • v = ma
  • v = fλ
  • f=1T

Sound waves are produced by

  • linear motion
  • circular motion
  • vibrating bodies
  • transitional motion

The loudness of sound varies directly with the vibrating body's

  • intensity
  • amplitude
  • pitch
  • quality

Sound energy passing per second through a unit area held perpendicular is called

  • intensity
  • frequency
  • amplitude
  • quality
