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

$A$ detector is released from rest over a source of sound of frequency $f_0 = 10^3 \, Hz$. The frequency observed by the detector at time $t$ is plotted in the graph. Given $g = 10 \, m/s^2$,find the speed of sound in air in $m/s$.

Statement $-1$: Due to the motion of the listener,the frequency of the sound waves (as received by the listener) emitted by a stationary source is affected.
Statement $-2$: Due to the motion of the source,the wavelength of the sound waves (emitted by the source) as received by a stationary listener is affected.
Statement $-3$: If the receiver and the source are both moving,the observed frequency must be different from the original frequency of the source.
Treat the motion of the source or listener as always along the line joining them for all the above cases.

$A$ 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 $333 \ m \ s^{-1}$)

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a velocity of one-fifth of the velocity of sound. The percentage increase in the apparent frequency is (in $\%$)
