Question
You are listening to an "A" note played on a violin string. Let the subscript "s" refer to the violin string and "a" refer to the air. Then
Options
A.fs = fa but λs ≠ λa
B.fs = fa and λs = λa
C.λs = λa but fs ≠ f a
D.λs ≠ λa and fs ≠ f a
Solution
Sol. Frequency will remain same as it depends on source. As medium is changed, so velocity changes, hence λ is different.
