$A$ whistle of frequency $500 \, Hz$ tied to the end of a string of length $1.2 \, m$ revolves at $400 \, rev/min$. $A$ listener standing some distance away in the plane of rotation of the whistle hears frequencies in the range (speed of sound $= 340 \, m/s$):

  • A
    $436 \, Hz$ to $586 \, Hz$
  • B
    $426 \, Hz$ to $574 \, Hz$
  • C
    $426 \, Hz$ to $584 \, Hz$
  • D
    $436 \, Hz$ to $674 \, Hz$

Two sources $A$ and $B$ are producing notes of frequency $680 \,Hz$. $A$ listener moves from $A$ to $B$ with a constant velocity $v$. If the speed of sound in air is $340 \,ms^{-1}$, the value of $v$ so that he hears $10$ beats per second is: (in $\,ms^{-1}$)

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound,with a velocity one-fifth of the velocity of sound. What is the percentage increase in the apparent frequency (in $\%$)?

$A$ source and an observer are moving towards each other with a speed equal to $\frac{v}{2}$,where $v$ is the speed of sound. The source is emitting sound of frequency $n$. The frequency heard by the observer will be

$A$ vehicle with a horn of frequency $n$ is moving with a velocity of $30\, m/s$ in a direction perpendicular to the straight line joining the observer and the vehicle. The observer perceives the sound to have a frequency $n + n_1$. Then (if the sound velocity in air is $300\, m/s$):
