$A$ person observes two moving trains. The first reaches the station and the second leaves the station,both with an equal speed of $30 \ m/s$. If both trains emit sounds of frequency $300 \ Hz$,what is the difference in frequencies heard by the person (in $Hz$)? (Speed of sound in air $= 330 \ m/s$)

$A$ train is moving with a constant speed along a large circular track. The engine of the train emits a sound of frequency $f$. What is the frequency heard by the guard at the rear end of the train?

$S_1$ and $S_2$ are two identical sound sources of frequency $656 \ Hz$. The source $S_1$ is located at $O$ and $S_2$ moves anti-clockwise with a uniform speed $4 \sqrt{2} \ ms^{-1}$ on a circular path around $O$,as shown in the figure. There are three points $P, Q$ and $R$ on this path such that $P$ and $R$ are diametrically opposite while $Q$ is equidistant from them. $A$ sound detector is placed at point $P$. The source $S_1$ can move along direction $OP$.

$(2)$ Consider both sources emitting sound. When $S_2$ is at $R$ and $S_1$ approaches the detector with a speed $4 \ ms^{-1}$,the beat frequency measured by the detector is $\qquad$ $Hz$.

$A$ bat is flitting about in a cave,navigating via ultrasonic beeps. Assume that the sound emission frequency of the bat is $40\; kHz$. During one fast swoop directly toward a flat wall surface,the bat is moving at $0.03$ times the speed of sound in air. What frequency (in $kHz$) does the bat hear reflected off the wall?

The difference between the apparent frequency of a source of sound as perceived by an observer during its approach and recession is $2\%$ of the natural frequency of the source. If the velocity of sound in air is $300 \, m/s$,the velocity of the source is ... $m/s$ (Given that velocity of source < velocity of sound).

View Solution

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 $=330 \,ms^{-1}$):
