A sound source is fixed at the origin and continuously emits sound at a frequency of . The sound propagates through air at a speed of . A listener travels along the line with a constant speed of . Calculate the frequency of the sound observed by the listener when he is positioned at .
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
The position of the source is L(336, -140)d = \sqrt{336^2 + (-140)^2} = \sqrt{112896 + 19600} = 364 \text{ m}y\vec{v}_L = 26 \hat{j} \text{ m s}^{-1}\hat{u} = \dfrac{-336 \hat{i} + 140 \hat{j}}{364} = -\dfrac{12}{13} \hat{i} + \dfrac{5}{13} \hat{j}v_{L \parallel} = \vec{v}_L \cdot \hat{u} = (26 \hat{j}) \cdot \left( -\dfrac{12}{13} \hat{i} + \dfrac{5}{13} \hat{j} \right) = 26 \times \dfrac{5}{13} = 10 \text{ m s}^{-1}f' = f_0 \left(\dfrac{v + v_{L \parallel}}{v} \right)
f' = 660 \left(\dfrac{330 + 10}{330} \right) =\dfrac{340}{330} =.
Answer:
f' = 660 \left(\dfrac{330 + 10}{330} \right) =\dfrac{340}{330} =.
