$A$ train is moving towards a stationary observer. Which of the following curves best represents the frequency $f$ received by the observer as a function of time $t$?

An audio transmitter $(T)$ and a receiver $(R)$ are hung vertically from two identical massless strings of length $8 \ m$ with their pivots well separated along the $X$ axis. They are pulled from the equilibrium position in opposite directions along the $X$ axis by a small angular amplitude $\theta_0 = \cos^{-1}(0.9)$ and released simultaneously. If the natural frequency of the transmitter is $660 \ Hz$ and the speed of sound in air is $330 \ m/s$,the maximum variation in the frequency (in $Hz$) as measured by the receiver (Take the acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ m/s^2$) is:

$A$ siren placed at a railway platform is emitting sound of frequency $5 \text{ kHz}$. $A$ passenger sitting in a moving train $A$ records a frequency of $5.5 \text{ kHz}$ while the train approaches the siren. During his return journey in a different train $B$,he records a frequency of $6.0 \text{ kHz}$ while approaching the same siren. The ratio of the velocity of train $B$ to that of train $A$ is

$A$ musician on a moving vehicle plays a tone at $880 \ Hz$. When the vehicle is approaching a listener, the listener receives it as an $888 \ Hz$ tone. What is the speed of the vehicle (in $m \ s^{-1}$)? (Assume the velocity of sound is $333 \ m \ s^{-1}$)

$A$ source of sound of frequency $n$ is moving towards a stationary observer with a speed $S$. If the speed of sound in air is $V$ and the frequency heard by the observer is $n_1$,the value of $n_1/n$ is
