$A$ source of sound $S$ is moving with a velocity of $50\,m/s$ towards a stationary observer. The observer measures the frequency of the sound as $1000\,Hz$. What will be the apparent frequency of the source when it is moving away from the observer after crossing him (in $,Hz$)? (Take the velocity of sound in air as $350\,m/s$)

  • A

$A$ sound source is moving on a circular path of radius $R$ with constant angular speed $\omega$ in an anticlockwise direction and emits a frequency $n$. An observer performs simple harmonic motion along the path $QPR$ with time period $T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}$ as shown in the figure. If at $t = 0$ the source is at $A$ and the observer is at $Q$,and assuming $OP$ is very large compared to the radius $R$ and $QP$,then:

$A$ reflector is moving with $20 \,m/s$ towards a stationary source of sound. If the source is producing sound waves of $160 \,Hz$, then the wavelength of the reflected wave is (speed of sound in air is $340 \,m/s$).

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a speed $\frac{1}{5}$th that of sound. The frequency of the sound emitted by the source is $f$. The apparent frequency recorded by the observer is

The frequency changes by $10\%$ as a sound source approaches a stationary observer with constant speed $v_s$. What would be the percentage change in frequency as the source recedes from the observer with the same speed? (Given that $v_s < v$,where $v$ is the speed of sound in air)

$A$ source and an observer are moving towards each other with a speed equal to $\frac{v}{2}$,where $v$ is the speed of sound. The source is emitting sound of frequency $n$. The frequency heard by the observer will be
