An observer while going on a scooter hears the sound of two sirens of the same frequency from two opposite directions. If he travels along the direction of one of the sirens,then he:

  • A
    Listens to resonance
  • B
    Listens to beats
  • C
    Will not listen to sound due to destructive interference
  • D
    Will listen to intensive sound due to constructive interference
