$A$ stationary source emits sound waves of frequency $500\, Hz$. Two observers moving along a line passing through the source detect sound to be of frequencies $480\, Hz$ and $530\, Hz$. Their respective speeds are,in $m\,s^{-1}$ (Given speed of sound $= 300\, m/s$)

  • A
    $16, 14$
  • B
    $12, 16$
  • C
    $8, 18$
  • D

$A$ table is revolving on its axis at $5$ revolutions per second. $A$ sound source of frequency $1000 \text{ Hz}$ is fixed on the table at $70 \text{ cm}$ from the axis. The minimum frequency heard by a listener standing at a distance from the table will be .... $\text{ Hz}$ (speed of sound $= 352 \text{ m/s}$)

$A$ vehicle sounding a whistle of frequency $256 \,Hz$ is moving on a straight road towards a hill with a velocity of $10 \,ms^{-1}$. The number of beats per second observed by a person travelling in the vehicle is (velocity of sound $= 330 \,ms^{-1}$).

With what speed should a sound source move towards an observer so that the observer hears half the original frequency $(v)$?

When an engine passes near a stationary observer,its apparent frequencies occur in the ratio $5/3$. If the velocity of sound is $340 \ m/s$,then the velocity of the engine is .... $m/s$.
