An Indian submarine $(I)$ and an enemy submarine $(E)$ move towards each other in motionless water. The Indian submarine moves at $50 \ km/h$,and the enemy submarine at $70 \ km/h$. The Indian submarine sends out a sonar signal (sound wave in water) at $1000 \ Hz$. The sonar wave reflects off the enemy submarine and returns to the Indian submarine. If the speed of sound in water is $5500 \ km/h$,what is the frequency of the reflected signal detected by the Indian submarine in $kHz$ (in $kHz$)?

  • A
    $1.02$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $2.5$
  • D
    $4.7$

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:

$A$ train whistling at a constant frequency is moving towards a station at a constant speed $V_S$. The train goes past a stationary observer on the station. The frequency $n'$ of the sound as heard by the observer is plotted as a function of time $t$. Identify the expected curve.

The pitch of the whistle of an engine appears to drop by $20 \%$ of its original value when it passes a stationary observer. If the speed of sound in air is $350 \ m/s$,then the speed of the engine in $m/s$ is:

$A$ 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 $\,N m^{-1}$)

$A$ car sounding a horn of frequency $1000 \text{ Hz}$ passes an observer. The ratio of frequencies noted by the observer before and after the car passes is $11:9$. If the speed of sound is $V$,what is the speed of the car?
