An Indian submarine $(I)$ and an enemy submarine $(E)$ move towards each other in motionless water. The Indian submarine moves at $50 \ km/h$,and the enemy submarine at $70 \ km/h$. The Indian submarine sends out a sonar signal (sound wave in water) at $1000 \ Hz$. The sonar wave reflects off the enemy submarine and returns to the Indian submarine. If the speed of sound in water is $5500 \ km/h$,what is the frequency of the reflected signal detected by the Indian submarine in $kHz$ (in $kHz$)?

  • A
    $1.02$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $2.5$
  • D
    $4.7$

When the source of sound moves away from a stationary listener,we obtain $f_{L} < f_{S}$. Why?

$A$ whistle emitting a loud sound of frequency $540 \,Hz$ is whirled in a horizontal circle of radius $2 \,m$ at a constant angular speed of $15 \,rad/s$. The speed of sound is $330 \,m/s$. The ratio of the highest to the lowest frequency heard by a listener standing at rest at a large distance from the centre of the circle is

$A$ source of sound of frequency $256 \ Hz$ is moving rapidly towards a wall with a velocity of $5 \ m/s$. The speed of sound is $330 \ m/s$. If the observer is between the wall and the source,then the number of beats per second heard will be .... $Hz$.
