$A$ train standing at the outer signal of a railway station blows a whistle of frequency $400\, Hz$ in still air. What is the frequency of the whistle for a platform observer when the train recedes from the platform with a speed of $10\, m/s$? (Speed of sound $= 340\, m/s$)

$A$ siren placed at a railway platform is emitting sound of frequency $5 \text{ kHz}$. $A$ passenger sitting in a moving train $A$ records a frequency of $5.5 \text{ kHz}$ while the train approaches the siren. During his return journey in a different train $B$,he records a frequency of $6.0 \text{ kHz}$ while approaching the same siren. The ratio of the velocity of train $B$ to that of train $A$ is

When the source of sound and the observer both are moving towards each other,the observer will hear:

When an engine passes near a stationary observer,its apparent frequencies occur in the ratio $5/3$. If the velocity of sound is $340 \ m/s$,then the velocity of the engine is .... $m/s$.

Two sirens situated one kilometer apart are producing sound of frequency $330 \ Hz$. An observer starts moving from one siren to the other with a speed of $2 \ m/s$. If the speed of sound is $330 \ m/s$,what will be the beat frequency heard by the observer?
