When a source of sound crosses a stationary observer,the change in apparent frequency of sound observed by the observer,when $V_s << V$,will be -

  • A
    $\Delta n = \frac{2 n V_s}{V}$
  • B
    $\Delta n = \frac{2 n V}{V_s}$
  • C
    $\Delta n = 2 n V_s V$
  • D
    $\Delta n = \frac{2 n V_0}{V}$

The frequency of a car horn changes from $400\, Hz$ to $500\, Hz$ as the car approaches a vertical wall. If the speed of sound is $330\, m/s$,then the speed of the car is $.....\, km/h$.

Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed of $1.0 \,m \,s^{-1}$ and the man behind walks at a speed of $2.0 \,m \,s^{-1}$. $A$ third man is standing at a height of $12 \,m$ above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency $1430 \,Hz$. The speed of sound in air is $330 \,m \,s^{-1}$. At the instant when the moving men are $10 \,m$ apart,the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in $Hz$ heard by the stationary man at this instant is:
