Q. A wave travels on a light string. The equation of the wave is y=A sin(kx+wt+30∘+180∘), it is reflected from a heavy string tied to an end of the light string at x= 0. If 64% of the incident energy is reflected then what is the equation of the reflected wave?
- y=A sin(kx−wt+30∘)
- y=A sin(kx+wt+30∘)
- y=0.8A sin(kx−wt+30∘)
- y=0.8A sin(kx+wt+30∘)

Q. A string of length 40 cm and linear mass density 0.80 g/cm is fixed at both ends and kept under a tension of 32 N. A wave pulse is produced near one of the ends at t=0, as shown in the figure, which makes periodic motion between the ends. What is the time after which the string will have the same shape shown in the figure?
- After 0.03 sec
- After 0.06 sec
- After 0.05 sec
- After 0.04 sec
Q. P is the junction of two wires A and B. B is made of steel and is thicker, while A is made of aluminum and is thinner as shown in the figure(i.e.μB>μA). If a wave pulse as shown in the figure approaches P, the reflected and transmitted waves from P are respectively:
