$A$ bus is moving with a velocity of $5 \ m/s$ towards a huge wall. The driver sounds a horn of frequency $165 \ Hz$. If the speed of sound in air is $355 \ m/s$,the number of beats heard per second by a passenger on the bus will be:

  • A
    $6$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$

$A$ sound source is tied to one end of a string of length $50 \ cm$ and is rotated with an angular speed of $40 \ rad \ s^{-1}$ in a horizontal plane. The ratio of the maximum and minimum frequencies of the sound heard by an observer standing at a distance of $10 \ m$ from the fixed end of the string is (speed of sound in air $= 340 \ m \ s^{-1}$).

Two cars are moving towards each other at the speed of $50 \,m/s$. If one of the cars blows a horn at a frequency of $250 \,Hz$, the wavelength of the sound perceived by the driver of the other car is (Speed of sound in air $= 350 \,m/s$) (in $\,cm$)
