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

Two engines pass each other moving in opposite directions with a uniform speed of $30\,m/s$. One of them is blowing a whistle of frequency $540\,Hz$. Calculate the frequency heard by the driver of the second engine before they pass each other. (Speed of sound is $330\,m/s$).

$A$ source of sound of frequency $640 \,Hz$ is moving at a velocity of $\frac{100}{3} \,m/s$ along a road, and is at an instant $30 \,m$ away from a point $A$ on the road. $A$ person standing at $O$, $40 \,m$ away from the road, hears sound of apparent frequency $v^{\prime}$. The value of $v^{\prime}$ is (velocity of sound $= 340 \,m/s$): (in $\,Hz$)
