An Indian submarine $(I)$ and an enemy submarine $(E)$ move towards each other in motionless water. The Indian submarine moves at $50 \ km/h$,and the enemy submarine at $70 \ km/h$. The Indian submarine sends out a sonar signal (sound wave in water) at $1000 \ Hz$. The sonar wave reflects off the enemy submarine and returns to the Indian submarine. If the speed of sound in water is $5500 \ km/h$,what is the frequency of the reflected signal detected by the Indian submarine in $kHz$ (in $kHz$)?

  • A
    $1.02$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $2.5$
  • D
    $4.7$

$A$ motorcycle starts from rest from a stationary source of sound and moves away from the source with a uniform acceleration $2 \,m/s^2$. The distance travelled by the motorcycle when the person on it hears the sound of frequency which is $94 \%$ of the true frequency is nearly (speed of sound in air $= 330 \,m/s$): (in $\,m$)

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a speed $\frac{1}{5}^{\text{th}}$ of the speed of sound. The wavelength and frequency of the waves emitted by the source are $\lambda$ and $f$ respectively. The apparent frequency and wavelength heard by the observer are respectively,

The apparent frequency of a note,when a listener moves towards a stationary source with a velocity of $40 \ m/s$,is $200 \ Hz$. When the listener moves away from the same source with the same speed,the apparent frequency of the same note is $160 \ Hz$. The velocity of sound in air is (in $m/s$):

$A$ stationary source of sound $A$ is producing sound of frequency $170 \, Hz$. Another source of sound $B$ producing sound of frequency $240 \, Hz$ is moving towards the source $A$ on a straight path with a uniform speed of $20 \, ms^{-1}$. An observer between $A$ and $B$ is moving towards the source $A$ along the straight path $BA$. If the number of beats heard by the observer is zero, the speed of the observer is . . . . . . $ms^{-1}$. (Speed of sound in air $= 340 \, ms^{-1}$).

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound of frequency $n$. The apparent frequency heard by him is $2n$. If the velocity of sound in air is $332 \, m/s$,then the velocity of the observer is .... $m/s$.
