$A$ 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 is approaching with a speed $v$ towards a stationary source emitting sound waves of wavelength $\lambda_0$. The wavelength shift detected by the observer is (Take $c$ as the speed of sound).

$A$ source and an observer are moving towards each other with a speed equal to $\frac{v}{2}$,where $v$ is the speed of sound. The source is emitting sound of frequency $n$. The frequency heard by the observer will be

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?

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 velocity of sound in air and $F_1 / F_2 = 2$,then $V / V_1$ is equal to:
