Two factories are sounding their sirens at $800 \, Hz$. $A$ man walks from one factory to the other at a speed of $2 \, m/s$. The velocity of sound is $320 \, m/s$. The number of beats heard by the person in one second will be:

Consider the Doppler effect in two cases. In the first case,an observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a speed of $50 \,m/s$. In the second case,the observer is at rest and the source moves towards the observer with the same speed of $50 \,m/s$. Then the frequency heard by the observer will be [velocity of sound in air $= 330 \,m/s$.]

$A$ whistle of frequency $540 Hz$ rotates in a horizontal circle of radius $2 m$ at an angular speed of $15 rad/s$. What is the highest frequency heard by a listener at rest with respect to the center of the circle (in $Hz$)? (Velocity of sound in air $= 330 m/s$)

When the listener moves towards a stationary source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency of the emitted note is $F_1$. When the observer moves away from the source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency is $F_2$. If $V$ is the velocity of sound in air and $\frac{F_1}{F_2} = 2$,then find the ratio $\frac{V}{V_1}$.

$A$ source of sound is moving towards a stationary observer with $\frac{1}{10}$ of the speed of sound. The ratio of apparent to real frequency is
