$A$ train is moving with a constant speed along a large circular track. The engine of the train emits a sound of frequency $f$. What is the frequency heard by the guard at the rear end of the train?

An engine is moving with uniform speed along a circular track emitting a sound of frequency $400\, Hz$ as shown in the figure. The speed of the engine is $30\, m/s$ and the speed of sound is $330\, m/s$. An observer is standing inside the track. The maximum frequency observed by the observer is

$A$ source and an observer move away from each other with a velocity of $10\; m/s$ with respect to the ground. If the observer finds the frequency of sound coming from the source as $1950\; Hz$,then the actual frequency of the source is .... $Hz$ (velocity of sound in air = $340\; m/s$).

$A$ source of sound emitting a note of frequency $200 Hz$ moves towards an observer with a velocity $v$ equal to the velocity of sound. If the observer also moves away from the source with the same velocity $v$,the apparent frequency heard by the observer is .... $Hz$
