Two sources $A$ and $B$ are sending notes of frequency $680 \ Hz$. $A$ listener moves from $A$ towards $B$ with a constant velocity $u$. If the speed of sound in air is $340 \ ms^{-1}$, what must be the value of $u$ so that he hears $10$ beats per second (in $ms^{-1}$)?

  • A
    $2.0$
  • B
    $2.5$
  • C
    $3.0$
  • D
    $3.5$

An observer and a source emitting sound of frequency $120 \,Hz$ are on the $X$-axis. The observer is stationary while the source of sound is in motion given by the equation $x=3 \sin \omega t$ (where $x$ is in metres and $t$ is in seconds). If the difference between the maximum and minimum frequencies of the sound observed by the observer is $22 \,Hz$,then the value of $\omega$ is (speed of sound in air $=330 \,ms^{-1}$):

What is the Doppler effect? Write its example and explain how its analysis can be performed.

$A$ whistle producing sound waves of frequencies $9500 \ Hz$ and above is approaching a stationary person with speed $v \ ms^{-1}$. The velocity of sound in air is $300 \ ms^{-1}$. If the person can hear frequencies up to a maximum of $10,000 \ Hz$,the maximum value of $v$ up to which he can hear the whistle is ... $ms^{-1}$.

$A$ whistle revolves in a circle with an angular speed of $20 \; rad/s$ using a string of length $50 \; cm.$ If the frequency of sound from the whistle is $385 \; Hz,$ then what is the minimum frequency heard by an observer,who is far away from the centre in the same plane? $(v = 340 \; m/s)$
