With what velocity an observer should move relative to a stationary source so that a sound of double the frequency of the source is heard by the observer?

  • A
    Half the velocity of sound towards the source.
  • B
    Same as velocity of sound away from the source.
  • C
    Twice the velocity of sound towards the source.
  • D
    Same as velocity of sound towards the source.

Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed $1.0 \ m \ s^{-1}$ and the man behind walks at a speed $2.0 \ m \ s^{-1}$. $A$ third man is standing at a height $12 \ m$ above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency $1430 \ Hz$. The speed of sound in air is $330 \ m \ s^{-1}$. At the instant when the moving men are $10 \ m$ apart,the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in $Hz$ heard by the stationary man at this instant is:
