Two sources $A$ and $B$ are sending notes of frequency $680 \ Hz$. $A$ listener moves from $A$ towards $B$ with a constant velocity $u$. If the speed of sound in air is $340 \ ms^{-1}$, what must be the value of $u$ so that he hears $10$ beats per second (in $ms^{-1}$)?

  • A
    $2.0$
  • B
    $2.5$
  • C
    $3.0$
  • D
    $3.5$
