Two sources of sound $S_1$ and $S_2$ produce sound waves of same frequency $660\, Hz$. $A$ listener is moving from source $S_1$ towards $S_2$ with a constant speed $u\, m/s$ and he hears $10\, \text{beats/s}$. The velocity of sound is $330\, m/s$. Then, $u$ equals ... $m/s$.

Two trains,one coming towards and another going away from an observer,both at $4 \; m/s$,produce a whistle simultaneously of frequency $300 \; Hz$. Find the number of beats produced. (Assume the speed of sound $v = 332 \; m/s$)

$A$ student holds a tuning fork oscillating at $170 \,Hz$. He walks towards a wall at a constant speed of $2 \,ms^{-1}$. The beat frequency observed by the student between the tuning fork and its echo is (Velocity of sound $=340 \,ms^{-1}$ ) (in $\,Hz$)

$A$ source of sound whose frequency is $1000 \text{ Hz}$ is moving with a speed of $33 \text{ m/s}$. The waves reflected by a fixed obstacle are registered by a receiver that moves together with the source. If the speed of the sound waves is $330 \text{ m/s}$, then the frequency registered by the receiver is: (in $\text{ kHz}$)

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:
