$A$ car sounding a horn of frequency $1000 \ Hz$ passes a stationary observer. The ratio of frequencies of the horn noted by the observer before and after passing the car is $11:9$. If the speed of sound is $v$,the speed of the car is:

  • A
    $v$
  • B
    $\frac{v}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{v}{5}$
  • D
    $\frac{v}{10}$

$A$ whistle of frequency $660 \,Hz$ moves in a circle of radius $1 \,m$ at an angular speed of $10 \,rad/s$. The highest frequency heard by a listener at a long distance and at rest with respect to the center of the circle is (Let speed of sound $= 340 \,m/s$.) (in $\,Hz$)

When the observer moves towards a stationary source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency of the emitted note is $F_1$. When the observer moves away from the source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency is $F_2$. If $V$ is the velocity of sound in air and $F_1 / F_2 = 2$,then $V / V_1$ is equal to:
