$A$ boy is walking away from a wall towards an observer at a speed of $1\, m/s$ and blows a whistle whose frequency is $680\, Hz$. The number of beats heard by the observer per second is (Velocity of sound in air $= 340\, m/s$).

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.

An observer standing at a station observes a frequency of $219 \, Hz$ when a train approaches and $184 \, Hz$ when the train goes away from him. If the velocity of sound in air is $340 \, m/s$,then the velocity of the train and the actual frequency of the whistle will be:

The frequency of sound heard by an observer moving towards a stationary source with certain speed is $n_1$ and if the observer moves away from the same source with same speed, the frequency of sound heard by the observer is $n_2$. If the speed of sound in air is $340 \ m/s$ and $n_1: n_2 = 71: 65$, then the speed of the observer is: (in $km/h$)

$A$ whistle giving out $450 Hz$ approaches a stationary observer at a speed of $33 m/s$. The frequency heard by the observer in $Hz$ is (Take speed of sound $v = 330 m/s$)
