$A$ source of sound of frequency $640 \,Hz$ is moving at a velocity of $\frac{100}{3} \,m/s$ along a road, and is at an instant $30 \,m$ away from a point $A$ on the road. $A$ person standing at $O$, $40 \,m$ away from the road, hears sound of apparent frequency $v^{\prime}$. The value of $v^{\prime}$ is (velocity of sound $= 340 \,m/s$): (in $\,Hz$)

  • A
    $620$
  • B
    $680$
  • C
    $720$
  • D

$A$ source of sound is moving towards a stationary observer with $\frac{1}{10}$ of the speed of sound. The ratio of apparent to real frequency is

$A$ driver in a car,approaching a vertical wall,notices that the frequency of his car horn has changed from $440 \, Hz$ to $480 \, Hz$ when it gets reflected from the wall. If the speed of sound in air is $345 \, m/s,$ then the speed of the car is $....... \, km/hr$.

$A$ source of sound emits sound waves at frequency $f_0$. It is moving towards an observer with fixed speed $v_s$ ($v_s < v$,where $v$ is the speed of sound in air). If the observer were to move towards the source with speed $v_0$,the variation of the frequency $f$ heard by the observer as $v_0$ is changed is given by one of the following two graphs ($A$ and $B$). The variation of $f$ with $v_0$ is given correctly by:

Statement $-1$: Due to the motion of the listener,the frequency of the sound waves (as received by the listener) emitted by a stationary source is affected.
Statement $-2$: Due to the motion of the source,the wavelength of the sound waves (emitted by the source) as received by a stationary listener is affected.
Statement $-3$: If the receiver and the source are both moving,the observed frequency must be different from the original frequency of the source.
Treat the motion of the source or listener as always along the line joining them for all the above cases.

$A$ racing car moving towards a cliff sounds its horn. The driver observes that the sound reflected from the cliff has a pitch one octave higher than the actual sound of the horn. If $v$ is the velocity of sound,the velocity of the car will be
