NEET UG 2025 — Physics Waves & Oscillations

A pipe open at both ends has a fundamental frequency $f$ in air. The pipe is now dipped vertically in a water drum to half of its length. The fundamental frequency of the air column is now equal to :

In an oscillating spring mass system, a spring is connected to a box filled with sand. As the box oscillates, sand leaks slowly out of the box vertically so that the average frequency $\omega(t)$ and average amplitude $A(t)$ of the system change with time $t$. Which one of the following options schematically depicts these changes correctly?

The two-dimensional motion of a particle, described by $\vec{r}=(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}) A \cos \omega t$ is a/an: A. parabolic path B. elliptical path C. periodic motion D. simple harmonic motion Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The displacement of a travelling wave $y=C \sin \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda}$ (at $-x$ ) where $t$ is time, $x$ is distance and $\lambda$ is the wavelength, all in S.I. units. Then the frequency of the wave is

A particle executing simple harmonic motion with amplitude $A$ has the same potential and kinetic energies at the displacement
