$A$ source of sound is travelling towards a stationary observer. The frequency of sound heard by the observer is three times the original frequency. If the velocity of sound is $v \ m/s$,the speed of the source will be:

  • A
    $\frac{2}{3}v$
  • B
    $v$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}v$
  • D
    $3v$

$A$ train is moving towards a stationary observer. Which of the following curves best represents the frequency $f$ received by the observer as a function of time $t$?

When the observer moves towards a stationary source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency of the emitted note is $F_1$. When the observer moves away from the source with velocity $V_1$,the apparent frequency is $F_2$. If $V$ is the velocity of sound in air and $F_1 / F_2 = 2$,then $V / V_1$ is equal to:

$A$ 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 $= 340 \,ms^{-1}$)

Two sources $A$ and $B$ are producing notes of frequency $680 \,Hz$. $A$ listener moves from $A$ to $B$ with a constant velocity $v$. If the speed of sound in air is $340 \,ms^{-1}$, the value of $v$ so that he hears $10$ beats per second is: (in $\,ms^{-1}$)

$A$ train is moving towards a stationary observer with speed $34 \text{ m/s}$. $A$ train sounds a whistle of frequency $450 \text{ Hz}$. If the speed of sound is $340 \text{ m/s}$, the frequency heard by the observer in Hz is
