$A$ car sounding a horn of frequency $1200 \text{ Hz}$ passes a stationary observer. The ratio of frequencies of the horn noted by the observer before and after passing the car is $7:5$. If the speed of sound is $V$,the speed of the car is:

  • A
    $V/6$
  • B
    $V/2$
  • C
    $V/8$
  • D
    $V/12$

Two sources of sound $S_1$ and $S_2$ are moving towards and away from a stationary observer with the same speed $V$ respectively. The observer detects $3$ beats per second. Find the speed of the source (approximately) in $m/s$. Given: $f_1 = f_2 = 500 \, Hz$,speed of sound in air $= 330 \, m/s$.

Obtain the equation for the frequency observed by a stationary observer when the source is moving.

$A$ source of sound emits a sound wave of frequency '$f$' and moves towards an observer with a velocity $\frac{V}{3}$,where $V$ is the velocity of sound. If the observer moves away from the source with a velocity $\frac{V}{5}$,the apparent frequency heard by him will be:

$A$ source and an observer both start moving simultaneously from the origin,one along the $x-$axis and the other along the $y-$axis,with the speed of the source being twice the speed of the observer. The graph between the apparent frequency $f$ observed by the observer and time $t$ would approximately be:
