A closed organ pipe of radiusr_(1) and an open organ pipe of radius r_(2) and having same length 'L' resonate when exited with a given tuning fork. Closed organ pipe and open organ pipe resonates in fundamental mode, then : |
|
Answer» `1.2 (r_(2)-r_(1)) =L` `implies (lambda)/4 = L+e` and for open organ pipe `(lambda)/2 = L + 2e_(2)` SO `4(L+e_(1))=2(L+2e_(2))` Now, `e_(1) = 0.6 r_(1)` and `e_(2) = 0.6 r_(2)` `2L = 4(e_(2)-e_(1))` `L = 2(e_(2)-e_(1))` `=2 xx 0.6 (r_(2)-r_(1))` `L = 1.2 (r_(2)-r_(1))`. |

There are p copies each of n different subjects. Find the number of ways in which a nonempty selection can be made from them. Also find the number of ways in which at least one copy of each subject is selected. |
|
Answer» Solution :Number of WAYS of selection of zero or more copies of any subject =1+1+1+..+1 ((p+1) times) =p+1 So, total number of ways of selection of zero or more copies from all N subjects =(p+1)(p+1)..(p+1)(n times) `=(p+1)^(n)` But this INCLUDES one CASE when no book is selected. So, number of nonempty selections `=(p+1)^(n)-1` Now number of ways of selection of at least one copy of any subject =1+1+1+..+1(p times )=p So, number of ways in which at least one copy of each subject is selected `=pxxpxxpxx.xxp`(n times) `=p^(n)`. |
