$A$ speaker emits a sound wave of frequency $f_0$. When it moves towards a stationary observer with speed $u$,the observer measures a frequency $f_1$. If the speaker is stationary and the observer moves towards it with speed $u$,the measured frequency is $f_2$. Then,

  • A
    $f_1=f_2 < f_0$
  • B
    $f_1 > f_2$
  • C
    $f_1 < f_2$
  • D
    $f_1=f_2 > f_0$

$A$ source of sound emits a sound wave of frequency '$f$' and moves towards an observer with a velocity $\frac{V}{3}$,where $V$ is the velocity of sound. If the observer moves away from the source with a velocity $\frac{V}{5}$,the apparent frequency heard by him will be:

When the observer 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 $F_1 / F_2 = 2$,then $V / V_1$ is equal to:

$A$ car sounding a horn of frequency $1200 \text{ Hz}$ passes a stationary observer. The ratio of frequencies of the horn noted by the observer before and after passing the car is $7:5$. If the speed of sound is $V$,the speed of the car is:

An engine is moving towards a wall with a velocity $50\, ms^{-1}$ and emits a note of $1.2\, kHz$. The speed of sound in air is $350\, ms^{-1}$. The frequency of the note after reflection from the wall as heard by the driver of the engine is ..... $kHz$.

Three musicians experiment with the Doppler effect. Musician $A$ rides in a car at a speed $u$ directly away from musician $B$ who is stationary. Musician $C$ rides in a car directly toward $B$ and travels at the same speed as $A$. Musician $A$ plays a note at frequency $f_A$ on his trumpet. $B$ hears the note,adjusts his trumpet,and plays the same note he heard. Choose the incorrect statement.
