Two identical coherent sound sources $R$ and $S$ with frequency $f$ are $5 \,m$ apart. An observer standing equidistant from the sources at a perpendicular distance of $12 \,m$ from the line $RS$ hears maximum sound intensity. When the observer moves parallel to the line $RS$ to a position directly in front of one of the sources,the sound intensity is a minimum. $A$ possible value of $f$ is close to ............ $Hz$ (the speed of sound is $330 \,m/s$).

Two sound waves having intensities $I$ and $4I$ interfere to produce an interference pattern. The phase difference between the waves is $\pi / 2$ at point $A$ and $\pi$ at point $B$. Then the difference between the resultant intensities at $A$ and $B$ is (in $I$)

The sources of sound $A$ and $B$ produce a wave of $350 Hz$ in the same phase. $A$ particle $P$ is vibrating under the influence of these two waves. If the amplitudes at $P$ produced by the two waves are $0.3 mm$ and $0.4 mm$,the resultant amplitude of the point $P$ will be,when $AP-BP=25 cm$ and the velocity of sound is $350 m s^{-1}$. (in $mm$)
