$A$ source $S$ emitting sound of frequency $288 \,Hz$ is fixed on block $B$ which is attached to the free end of a spring $S_2$, and an observer $O$ is on block $A$ which is attached to the free end of spring $S_1$ as shown in the figure. The blocks $A$ and $B$ are simultaneously displaced towards each other through a distance of $0.5 \,m$ and then left to oscillate. If the angular velocity of each block is $40 \,rad/s$, then the maximum frequency observed by the observer is (speed of sound in air is $340 \,m/s$): (in $\,Hz$)

  • A
    $288$
  • B
    $310$
  • C
    $324$
  • D
