$A$ source of sound emits a sound wave of frequency '$f$' and moves towards an observer with a velocity $\frac{V}{3}$,where $V$ is the velocity of sound. If the observer moves away from the source with a velocity $\frac{V}{5}$,the apparent frequency heard by him will be:

  • A
    $\frac{15}{8} f$
  • B
    $\frac{8}{15} f$
  • C
    $\frac{6}{5} f$
  • D
    $\frac{15}{18} f$

$A$ train approaching a railway crossing at a speed of $120 \ km/h$ sounds a whistle of frequency $576 \ Hz$,when it is $288 \ m$ away from the crossing. The frequency heard by an observer standing on the road perpendicular to the track at a distance of $384 \ m$ from the crossing is (Speed of sound in air $= 340 \ m/s$): (in $Hz$)

The pitch of the whistle of an engine appears to drop by $20 \%$ of its original value when it passes a stationary observer. If the speed of sound in air is $350 \ m/s$,then the speed of the engine in $m/s$ is:

When a source of sound crosses a stationary observer,the change in apparent frequency of sound observed by the observer,when $V_s << V$,will be -
