Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed of $1.0 \,m \,s^{-1}$ and the man behind walks at a speed of $2.0 \,m \,s^{-1}$. $A$ third man is standing at a height of $12 \,m$ above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency $1430 \,Hz$. The speed of sound in air is $330 \,m \,s^{-1}$. At the instant when the moving men are $10 \,m$ apart,the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in $Hz$ heard by the stationary man at this instant is:

$A$ train is approaching a platform with a speed of $10 \,ms^{-1}$ while blowing a whistle of frequency $340 \,Hz$. What is the frequency of the whistle heard by a stationary observer on the platform (in $\,Hz$)? (Given speed of sound $= 340 \,ms^{-1}$)

$A$ train sounding a whistle of frequency $510 \,Hz$ approaches a station at $72 \,km/hr$. The frequency of the note heard by an observer on the platform as the train $(1)$ approaches the station and then $(2)$ recedes from the station are respectively (in hertz) (velocity of sound in air $= 320 \,m/s$).

$A$ train moving at a speed of $220\, m s^{-1}$ towards a stationary object,emits a sound of frequency $1000\, Hz$. Some of the sound reaching the object gets reflected back to the train as an echo. The frequency of the echo as detected by the driver of the train is ...... $Hz$. (Speed of sound in air is $330\, m s^{-1}$)

When both the source of sound and the observer approach each other with a speed equal to $10 \%$ of the speed of sound,then the percentage change in frequency heard by the observer is nearly (in $\%$)
