Two sources of sound $S_1$ and $S_2$ produce sound waves of same frequency $660\, Hz$. $A$ listener is moving from source $S_1$ towards $S_2$ with a constant speed $u\, m/s$ and he hears $10\, \text{beats/s}$. The velocity of sound is $330\, m/s$. Then, $u$ equals ... $m/s$.

$A$ sound source is tied to one end of a string of length $50 \ cm$ and is rotated with an angular speed of $40 \ rad \ s^{-1}$ in a horizontal plane. The ratio of the maximum and minimum frequencies of the sound heard by an observer standing at a distance of $10 \ m$ from the fixed end of the string is (speed of sound in air $= 340 \ m \ s^{-1}$).

Two trains move towards each other with the same speed. The speed of sound is $340 \; m/s$. If the pitch of the whistle of one train heard by an observer on the other train changes by a factor of $9/8$,then the speed of each train is ........... $m/s$.

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a velocity one-fifth of the velocity of sound. The percentage change in the apparent frequency is ..... $\%$

$A$ man is watching two trains,one leaving and the other coming with an equal speed of $4\,m/s$. If they sound their whistles each of frequency $240\,Hz$,the number of beats per second heard by the man will be equal to: (velocity of sound in air $= 320\,m/s$)
