Sitting in newly launched gatiman express frequency of a stationary sound source is heard as `f` when it is approaching towards the source. What is the approximate speed of gatiman express if frequency heard when receding is `2f//3`? (take speed of sound in air as `320m//s`)

A

`200km//h`

B

`190km//h`

C

`230km//h`

D

`250km//h`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Assuming original frequency of signal as `f_(0)`
Frequency heard when approaching `f=(v+u)/(v)xxf_(0)`
When receding `(2f)/(3)=(v-u)/(3)xxf_(0)`
dividing them `implies(3)/(2)=(320+u)/(320-u)`
`impliesu=64m//s=64xx(18)/(5)km//hr`
`~=230km//hr`
