The source is emitting sound of frequency 'n'. A source and a listener both are moving towards each other with a speed equal to , where V is the speed of sound. The frequency heard by the listener will be
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
The apparent frequency heard by the listener is given by the Doppler effect formula:
the v_L = v_S = the formula:
n' = n \left( \dfrac{V + \dfrac{V}{3}}{V - \dfrac{V}{3}} \right)n' = n \left( \dfrac{\dfrac{4V}{3}}{\dfrac{2V}{3}} \right)
Answer: 2n
the v_L = v_S = the formula:
n' = n \left( \dfrac{V + \dfrac{V}{3}}{V - \dfrac{V}{3}} \right)n' = n \left( \dfrac{\dfrac{4V}{3}}{\dfrac{2V}{3}} \right)
Answer: 2n
