$A$ source,approaching with speed $u$ towards the open end of a stationary pipe of length $L$,is emitting a sound of frequency $f_s$. The farther end of the pipe is closed. The speed of sound in air is $v$ and $f_0$ is the fundamental frequency of the pipe. For which of the following combination$(s)$ of $u$ and $f_s$,will the sound reaching the pipe lead to a resonance?
$(A)$ $u=0.8 v$ and $f_s=f_0$
$(B)$ $u=0.8 v$ and $f_s=2 f_0$
$(C)$ $u=0.8 v$ and $f_s=0.5 f_0$
