$A$ stationary source is emitting sound at a fixed frequency $f_0$,which is reflected by two cars approaching the source. The difference between the frequencies of sound reflected from the cars is $1.2 \%$ of $f_0$. What is the difference in the speeds of the cars (in $km/h$) to the nearest integer? The cars are moving at constant speeds much smaller than the speed of sound,which is $330 \ m/s$.
