$A$ source of sound $S$ of frequency $500 \ Hz$ situated between a stationary observer $O$ and a wall $W$,moves towards the wall with a speed of $2 \ m/s$. If the velocity of sound is $332 \ m/s$,then the number of beats per second heard by the observer is (approximately)

  • A
    $8$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $2$

Two whistles $A$ and $B$ produce notes of frequencies $660 \ Hz$ and $596 \ Hz$ respectively. There is a listener at the mid-point of the line joining them. Now,the whistle $B$ and the listener start moving with a speed of $30 \ m/s$ away from the whistle $A$. If the speed of sound is $330 \ m/s$,how many beats will be heard by the listener?

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:

The pitch of the whistle of an engine appears to drop by $20 \%$ of its original value when it passes a stationary observer. If the speed of sound in air is $350 \ m/s$,then the speed of the engine in $m/s$ is:

Doppler's effect will not be applicable when the velocity of sound source is

$A$ stationary source is emitting sound at a fixed frequency $f_0$,which is reflected by two cars approaching the source. The difference between the frequencies of sound reflected from the cars is $1.2\%$ of $f_0$. What is the difference in the speeds of the cars (in $km/h$) to the nearest integer? The cars are moving at constant speeds much smaller than the speed of sound,which is $330 \ m/s$.
