$A$ source emits a sound of frequency $400 \ Hz$,but the listener hears it to be $390 \ Hz$. Then:

$A$ stationary source emits sound of frequency $f_0 = 492 \,Hz$. The sound is reflected by a large car approaching the source with a speed of $v_c = 2 \,ms^{-1}$. The reflected signal is received by the source and superposed with the original. What will be the beat frequency of the resulting signal in $Hz$? (Given that the speed of sound in air is $v = 330 \,ms^{-1}$ and the car reflects the sound at the frequency it has received).

An engine is moving on a circular path of radius $200 \,m$ with a speed of $15 \,m/s$. What will be the frequency heard by an observer who is at rest at the centre of the circular path,when the engine blows the whistle with a frequency of $250 \,Hz$?

$A$ train is moving on a straight track with speed $20 \ ms^{-1}$. It is blowing its whistle at a frequency of $1000 \ Hz$. The percentage change in the frequency heard by a person standing near the track as the train passes him is (speed of sound $= 320 \ ms^{-1}$) close to .... $\%$

The driver of a bus approaching a big wall notices that the frequency of his bus's horn changes from $420\, Hz$ to $490\, Hz$,when he hears it after it gets reflected from the wall. Find the speed of the bus (in $kmh^{-1}$) if the speed of sound is $330\, ms^{-1}$.
