$A$ whistle producing sound waves of frequencies $9500 \ Hz$ and above is approaching a stationary person with speed $v \ ms^{-1}$. The velocity of sound in air is $300 \ ms^{-1}$. If the person can hear frequencies up to a maximum of $10,000 \ Hz$,the maximum value of $v$ up to which he can hear the whistle is ... $ms^{-1}$.

$A$ musician using an open flute of length $50\,cm$ produces second harmonic sound waves. $A$ person runs towards the musician from another end of a hall at a speed of $10\,km/h.$ If the wave speed is $330\,m/s,$ the frequency heard by the running person shall be close to...... $Hz$

$A$ stationary source is emitting sound at a fixed frequency $f_0$,which is reflected by two cars approaching the source. The difference between the frequencies of sound reflected from the cars is $1.2 \%$ of $f_0$. What is the difference in the speeds of the cars (in $km/h$) to the nearest integer? The cars are moving at constant speeds much smaller than the speed of sound,which is $330 \ m/s$.

$A$ person observes two moving trains. The first reaches the station and the second leaves the station,both with an equal speed of $30 \ m/s$. If both trains emit sounds of frequency $300 \ Hz$,what is the difference in frequencies heard by the person (in $Hz$)? (Speed of sound in air $= 330 \ m/s$)
