$A$ sound source $S$ is moving along a straight track with speed $v,$ and is emitting sound of frequency $v_{0}.$ An observer is standing at a finite distance,at the point $O,$ from the track. The time variation of frequency heard by the observer is best represented by (where $t_{0}$ represents the instant when the distance between the source and observer is minimum).

$A$ source of sound $S$ in the form of a block kept on a smooth horizontal surface is connected to a spring, as shown in the figure. If the spring oscillates with an amplitude of $50 \,cm$ along the horizontal between the wall and the observer $O$, the maximum frequency heard by the observer is $12.5 \%$ more than the minimum frequency heard by him. If the mass of the source of sound is $100 \,g$, the force constant of the spring is (Speed of sound in air is $340 \,ms^{-1}$) (in $\,N m^{-1}$)

$A$ vehicle with a horn of frequency $n$ is moving with a velocity of $30\, m/s$ in a direction perpendicular to the straight line joining the observer and the vehicle. The observer perceives the sound to have a frequency $n + n_1$. Then (if the sound velocity in air is $300\, m/s$):

$A$ bus driving along at $39.6 \,km/h$ is approaching a person who is standing at the bus stop,while honking repeatedly at an interval of $30 \,s$. If the speed of sound is $330 \,ms^{-1}$,at what interval will the person hear the horn?

$A$ police car with a siren of frequency $8 \ kHz$ is moving with uniform velocity $36 \ km/h$ towards a tall building which reflects the sound waves. The speed of sound in air is $320 \ m/s$. The frequency of the siren heard by the car driver is (in $kHz$)

Suppose that the speed of sound in air at a given temperature is $400 \ m/s$. An engine blows a whistle at $1200 \ Hz$ frequency. It is approaching an observer at the speed of $100 \ m/s$. What is the apparent frequency as heard by the observer in $Hz$?
