$A$ stationary source of sound $A$ is producing sound of frequency $170 \, Hz$. Another source of sound $B$ producing sound of frequency $240 \, Hz$ is moving towards the source $A$ on a straight path with a uniform speed of $20 \, ms^{-1}$. An observer between $A$ and $B$ is moving towards the source $A$ along the straight path $BA$. If the number of beats heard by the observer is zero, the speed of the observer is . . . . . . $ms^{-1}$. (Speed of sound in air $= 340 \, ms^{-1}$).

$A$ musician using an open flute of length $50\,cm$ produces second harmonic sound waves. $A$ person runs towards the musician from another end of a hall at a speed of $10\,km/h.$ If the wave speed is $330\,m/s,$ the frequency heard by the running person shall be close to...... $Hz$

The frequency changes by $10 \%$ as a sound source approaches a stationary observer with constant speed $V_s$. What would be the percentage change in the frequency as the source recedes from the observer with the same speed $\left(V_s < V\right)$ (in $.5$)?
