Given below are two statements:
| Assertion (A): | Sound waves in a gas are pressure waves, but these are also accompanied by changes in local temperature. |
| Reason (R): | Sound waves are propagated in gas through an adiabatic process and hence accompanied by temperature variations. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |

A rope of uniform mass per unit length \(\mu\) is suspended from the ceiling, hanging under its own weight. If a small transverse pulse is formed at its lower end \(A\), it travels upward with a local speed \(v=\sqrt {\dfrac{\text{tension}}{\text{mass/length}}}\).
The speed of the pulse is:
The speed of the pulse is:
| 1. | maximum at \(A,\) minimum at \(O\) |
| 2. | minimum at \(A,\) maximum at \(O\) |
| 3. | uniform |
| 4. | minimum at \(A\) and \(O,\) maximum in the middle |
