$A$ sounding body of negligible dimension emitting a frequency of $150\, Hz$ is dropped from a height. During its fall under gravity,it passes near a balloon moving up with a constant velocity of $2\, m/s$ one second after it started to fall. The difference in the frequency observed by the man in the balloon just before and just after crossing the body will be: (Given: velocity of sound $= 300\, m/s$; $g = 10\, m/s^2$) (in $, Hz$)

$A$ 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).

At what speed should a source of sound move so that the observer finds the apparent frequency equal to half the original frequency?

$A$ train moving towards a hill at a speed of $72\ km/hr$ sounds a whistle of frequency $500\ Hz$. $A$ wind is blowing from the hill at a speed of $36\ km/hr$. If the speed of sound in air is $340\ m/s$,the frequency heard by a man on the hill (nearly) is ... $Hz$

Obtain the equation of frequency observed by an observer for a moving source and a moving observer at different velocities.

$A$ bus driving along at $39.6 \,km/h$ is approaching a person who is standing at the bus stop,while honking repeatedly at an interval of $30 \,s$. If the speed of sound is $330 \,ms^{-1}$,at what interval will the person hear the horn?
