4λ1=11+e⇒512×4v=11+e...(1)
4λ2=27+e⇒256×4v=27+e...(2)
Subtracting the equations,
256×4v×21=16cm=0.16m
⇒v=0.16×2×4×256

A resonance tube is old and has a jagged end. It is still used in the laboratory to determine the velocity of sound in air. A tuning fork of frequency 512Hz produces first resonance when the tube is filled with water to a mark 11cm below a reference mark, near the open end of the tube. The experiment is repeated with another fork of frequency 256Hz which produces first resonance when water reaches a mark 27cm below the reference mark. The velocity of sound in air, obtained in the experiment, is close to

A uniform disc of radius $R$ and mass $M$ is free to oscillate about the axis $A$ as shown in the figure. For small oscillations the time period is ______. ($g$ is acceleration due to gravity) 
The velocity of a particle executing simple harmonic motion along $x$-axis is described as $v^2 = 50 - x^2$, where $x$ represents displacement. If the time period of motion is $\dfrac{x}{7}$ s, the value of $x$ is _____.
A spring stretches by $2$ mm when it is loaded with a mass of $200$ g. From equilibrium position the mass is further pulled down by $2$ mm and released. The frequency associated with the system and maximum energy in the spring are __________ Hz and __________ J, respectively. (Take g $= 10$ m/s$^2$)
As shown in the figure, a spring is kept in a stretched position with some extension by holding the masses 1 kg and 0.2 kg with a separation more than spring natural length and are released. Assuming the horizontal surface to be frictionless, the angular frequency (in SI unit) of the system is : $k=150 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}$
