$A$ sound source is tied to one end of a string of length $50 \ cm$ and is rotated with an angular speed of $40 \ rad \ s^{-1}$ in a horizontal plane. The ratio of the maximum and minimum frequencies of the sound heard by an observer standing at a distance of $10 \ m$ from the fixed end of the string is (speed of sound in air $= 340 \ m \ s^{-1}$).

$A$ motor car blowing a horn of frequency $124\,vib/sec$ moves with a velocity $72\,km/hr$ towards a tall wall. The frequency of the reflected sound heard by the driver will be .... $vib/sec$ (velocity of sound in air is $330\,m/s$).

With what velocity should an observer move relative to a stationary source so that they hear a sound of double the frequency of the source?

$A$ speaker emits a sound wave of frequency $f_0$. When it moves towards a stationary observer with speed $u$,the observer measures a frequency $f_1$. If the speaker is stationary and the observer moves towards it with speed $u$,the measured frequency is $f_2$. Then,

$A$ source and an observer both start moving simultaneously from the origin,one along the $x-$axis and the other along the $y-$axis,with the speed of the source being twice the speed of the observer. The graph between the apparent frequency $f$ observed by the observer and time $t$ would approximately be:

The frequency changes by $10 \%$ as a sound source approaches a stationary observer with constant speed $V_s$. What would be the percentage change in the frequency as the source recedes from the observer with the same speed $\left(V_s < V\right)$ (in $.5$)?
