When the listener 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 $\frac{F_1}{F_2} = 2$,then find the ratio $\frac{V}{V_1}$.

$A$ sound source $S$ is moving along a straight track with speed $v,$ and is emitting sound of frequency $v_{0}.$ An observer is standing at a finite distance,at the point $O,$ from the track. The time variation of frequency heard by the observer is best represented by (where $t_{0}$ represents the instant when the distance between the source and observer is minimum).

Which of the following statements is false?

$A$ source and a listener are both moving towards each other with a speed of $\frac{V}{10}$ (where $V$ is the speed of sound). If the frequency of the sound note emitted by the source is $n$,then the frequency heard by the listener would be nearly:

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?

$A$ man sitting in a moving train hears the whistle of the engine. The frequency of the whistle is $600 \ Hz$.
