In a resonance tube experiment, a tube of fixedlength in closed at one end and several turningforks of increasing frequency used to obtainresonance at the open end. If the turning fork withthe lowest frequency which gave resonance had a frequency f1 and the next turning fork to giveresonance had a frequency f2, find the ratio f2/ f1.

In the Figure above, QR is a vertical conductor and the current I flows from R to Q, P is a point on the horizontal plane and is to the south of the wire. The direction of the magnetic field at P due to the current is

The image above shows an inverted U-tube with the open end, O of one limb below the level, W of water in the tank, in order that water should begin to flow from the tank it is is necessary that

PQ is a thin rod on a horizontal table, RS is a plane mirror inclined at \(45^\circ C\) to the horizontal as shown above. The image of PQ as seen in the mirror by the eye T is

In a resonance tube experiment, a tube fixed length is closed at one end and several tuning forks of increasing frequency used to obtain resonance at the open end. If the tuning fork with the lowest frequency which gave resonance had a frequency \(f_1\) and the next tuning fork to give resonance had a frequency \(f_2\), find the ratio \(\frac{f^2}{f^2}\).
