If you blow across the top of an empty soft-drink bottle, a pulse of sound travels down through the air in the bottle. At the moment the pulse reaches the bottom of the bottle, the correct descriptions of the displacement of elements of air from their equilibrium positions and the pressure of the air at this (bottom) point are 1) the displacement and pressure are both at a maximum 2) the displacement and pressure are both at a minimum 3) the displacement is zero and the pressure is a maximum 4) the displacement is zero and the pressure is a minimum 128. A sound is produced by plucking a string in a musical instrument, then 1) the velocity of transvers wave in the string is equal to the velocity of sound in air 2) the frequency of the wave in the string is equal to the frequency of the sound produced 3) the wave in the string is progressive

4) the tension in the string varies from point to point 129. A vibrating guitar string makes very little sound if it is not mounted on the guitar. But if this vibrating string is attached to the guitar body, so that the body of the guitar vibrates, the sound is higher in intensity. This is because 1) the power of the vibration is spread out over a larger area 2) the energy leaves the guitar at a higher rate 3) the speed of sound is higher in the material of the guitar body 4) none of these 130.

Two pulses move in opposite directions on a string and are identical in shape except that one

has positive displacements of the elements of the string and the other has negative displacements. At the moment that the two pulses completely overlap on the string, 1) the energy associated with the pulses has disappeared 2) the particles of the string are not moving 3) the string forms a straight line 4) the pulses have vanished and will not reappear 135.

You are tuning a guitar by comparing the sound of the string with that of a standard tuning fork. You notice a beat frequency of 5 Hz when both sounds are present.

You do a very precise experiment to test the properties of a piece of wire. You stretch the wire by applying an outward force to each end of the wire and measure its change in length.
