$A$ bat is flitting about in a cave,navigating via ultrasonic beeps. Assume that the sound emission frequency of the bat is $40\; kHz$. During one fast swoop directly toward a flat wall surface,the bat is moving at $0.03$ times the speed of sound in air. What frequency (in $kHz$) does the bat hear reflected off the wall?

$A$ 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

$A$ car sounding its horn at $480\,Hz$ moves towards a high wall at a speed of $20\,m/s$. If the speed of sound is $340\,m/s,$ the frequency of the reflected sound heard by the passenger sitting in the car will be the nearest to ..... $Hz$.

Two passenger trains moving with a speed of $108\, km/h$ cross each other. One of them blows a whistle whose frequency is $750\, Hz$. If the speed of sound is $330\, m/s$,then the passengers sitting in the other train,after the trains cross each other,will hear a sound whose frequency is .... $Hz$.
