Two whistles $A$ and $B$ each have a frequency of $500\,Hz$. $A$ is stationary and $B$ is moving towards the right (away from $A$) at a speed of $50\,m/s$. An observer is between the two whistles moving towards the right with a speed of $25\,m/s$. The velocity of sound in air is $350\,m/s$. Assume there is no wind. Then which of the following statements are true:

$A$ person feels a $2.5\%$ difference in the frequency of a motor-car horn. If the motor-car is moving towards the person and the velocity of sound is $320\, m/s$,then the velocity of the car will be:

$A$ speaker emits a sound wave of frequency $f_0$. When it moves towards a stationary observer with speed $u$,the observer measures a frequency $f_1$. If the speaker is stationary and the observer moves towards it with speed $u$,the measured frequency is $f_2$. Then,

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