AP EAMCET2013PhysicsWaves and Sound
A source of sound of frequency 640 ~Hz is moving at a velocity of 100 3 ~m / s along a road, and is at an instant 30 ~m away from a point A on the road (as shown in figure). A person standing at O, 40 ~m away from the road hears sound of apparent frequency v^ . The value of v^ is (velocity of sound =340 ~m / s )
Options
- A620 ~Hz
- B680 ~Hz
- C720 ~Hz
- D840 ~Hz
Correct answer
B. 680 ~Hz
Step-by-step solution
We know that, n^ =n [ v v-v_s ] Hence, aligned n^ & =640 [ 340 340- 100 5 ] n^ & =640 340 320 =2 340 & =680 ~Hz aligned
