$A$ car is moving towards a high cliff. The car driver sounds a horn of frequency $f$. The reflected sound heard by the driver has a frequency $2f$. If $v$ is the velocity of sound,then the velocity of the car,in the same velocity units,will be:

  • A
    $v/\sqrt{2}$
  • B
    $v/2$
  • C
    $v/3$
  • D
    $v/4$

$A$ police car with a siren of frequency $8 \ kHz$ is moving with uniform velocity $36 \ km/h$ towards a tall building which reflects the sound waves. The speed of sound in air is $320 \ m/s$. The frequency of the siren heard by the car driver is (in $kHz$)

An engine moving away from a vertical cliff blows a horn at a frequency $f$. Its speed is $0.5 \%$ of the speed of sound in air. The frequency of the reflected sound received at the engine is ............ $f$.

$A$ toy-car,blowing its horn,is moving with a steady speed of $5\, m/s$,away from a wall. An observer,towards whom the toy car is moving,is able to hear $5\, beats$ per second. If the velocity of sound in air is $340\, m/s$,the frequency of the horn of the toy car is close to ... $Hz$

An observer is standing $500 \,m$ away from a vertical hill. Starting between the observer and the hill, a police van sounding a siren of frequency $1000 \,Hz$ moves towards the hill with a uniform speed. If the frequency of the sound heard directly from the siren is $970 \,Hz$, the frequency of the sound heard after reflection from the hill (in $Hz$) is about, (velocity of sound $= 330 \,m/s$):

When the observer moves towards a stationary source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency of the emitted note is $F_1$. When the observer moves away from the source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency is $F_2$. If $V$ is the velocity of sound in air and $F_1 / F_2 = 2$,then $V / V_1$ is equal to:
