$A$ driver in a car,approaching a vertical wall,notices that the frequency of his car horn has changed from $440 \, Hz$ to $480 \, Hz$ when it gets reflected from the wall. If the speed of sound in air is $345 \, m/s,$ then the speed of the car is $....... \, km/hr$.

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a speed $\frac{1}{5}^{\text{th}}$ of the speed of sound. The wavelength and frequency of the waves emitted by the source are $\lambda$ and $f$ respectively. The apparent frequency and wavelength heard by the observer are respectively,

$A$ stationary source of sound $A$ is producing sound of frequency $170 \, Hz$. Another source of sound $B$ producing sound of frequency $240 \, Hz$ is moving towards the source $A$ on a straight path with a uniform speed of $20 \, ms^{-1}$. An observer between $A$ and $B$ is moving towards the source $A$ along the straight path $BA$. If the number of beats heard by the observer is zero, the speed of the observer is . . . . . . $ms^{-1}$. (Speed of sound in air $= 340 \, ms^{-1}$).

An obstacle is moving towards the source with velocity $v$. The sound is reflected from the obstacle. If $c$ is the speed of sound and $\lambda$ is the wavelength,then the wavelength of the reflected wave $(\lambda_{r})$ is

An observer and a source emitting sound of frequency $120 \,Hz$ are on the $X$-axis. The observer is stationary while the source of sound is in motion given by the equation $x=3 \sin \omega t$ (where $x$ is in metres and $t$ is in seconds). If the difference between the maximum and minimum frequencies of the sound observed by the observer is $22 \,Hz$,then the value of $\omega$ is (speed of sound in air $=330 \,ms^{-1}$):
