3. SLG10Q34 Diagram 21 shows a house at the bottom of a hill
receiving radio waves from a transmission station.

This phenomenon happens because the radio waves is


A reflection
B refraction
C diffraction
D interference

Which of the following statements is true?


A P has a higher pitch than Q
B Q has a higer pitch than R
C R has the highest pitch
D P, Q and R have the same pitch
7. PHG10Q33 Diagram shows a ship is sending out a pulse of
ultrasound to the seabed. If the reflected ultrasound is received
0.36 s later, what is the depth of the sea? [Assume the speed
of sound in sea water = 1500 ms-1].

A 8.3 m
B 270 m
C 540 m
D 4166 m
8. MLK09Q38 Ultrasonic waves are transmitted by a
hydrophone from a boat to the seabed. The echoes of the
ultrasonic waves are received by the detector on the boat 0.02
s after the transmission. The speed of ultrasonic waves in the
sea water is 4200 ms-1.

4. KL10Q33 Diagram shows a climber starts a stopwatch as he


shouts. He hears an echo from the opposite side of the valley
after 1.0 s.

The sound travels at 340 ms-1. What is the width of the valley?
A 85 m
B 170 m
C 340 m
D 680 m

9. PPTTRG11Q46 Diagram shows the traces of sound waves


P and Q being displayed using same cathode ray oscilloscope
(CRO) settings.

Which statement is correct about sound P and Q?
A Sound Q is louder than sound P.
B Sound Q has a higher pitch than sound P.
C Sound Q has a lower pitch than sound P.
