The driver of a car travelling with a speed $V_1 \ m/s$ towards a wall sounds a siren of frequency $n \ Hz$. If the velocity of sound in air is $V \ m/s$,then the frequency of sound reflected from the wall and as heard by the driver,in $Hz$,is

$A$ train whistling at a constant frequency $n$ is moving towards a station at a constant speed $v_s$. The train goes past a stationary observer on the station. The frequency $n'$ of the sound as heard by the observer is plotted as a function of time $t$. Identify the correct curve.

With what velocity an observer should move relative to a stationary source so that a sound of double the frequency of the source is heard by the observer?

The apparent frequency of a sound wave as heard by an observer is $10\%$ more than the actual frequency. If the velocity of sound in air is $330 \, m/s$,then
$(i)$ The source may be moving towards the observer with a velocity of $30 \, m/s$
$(ii)$ The source may be moving towards the observer with a velocity of $33 \, m/s$
$(iii)$ The observer may be moving towards the source with a velocity of $30 \, m/s$
$(iv)$ The observer may be moving towards the source with a velocity of $33 \, m/s$

When the observer moves towards a stationary source with velocity $V_1$, the apparent frequency of the emitted note is $F_1$. When the observer moves away from the source with velocity $V_1$, the apparent frequency is $F_2$. If $V$ is the speed of sound in air and $F_1/F_2 = 2$, then $V/V_1 =$
