Question

The air column inside a sonometer is in resonance with a tuning fork placed on the wooden board. If the wooden board is now evacuated, check the correct statement:

Solution

Correct option is

The vibrations will last longer but will be less louder

Since there is no air column, there will be no resonance. Therefore, there is no transfer of energy. The vibrations will last longer. However, the absence of resonance will decrease the loudness of the sound.
