A siren is fitted on as car going towards a vertical wall at a speed of 36 km/h. A person standing on the ground, behind the car, listens to the siren sound coming directly from the source as well as that coming after refelction from the siren to the person and b. coming after reflection. Take the speed of sound to be `340ms^-1`

An ambulance fitted with a siren of v = 400 Hz is going towards a vertical wall at a speed of 54 km/hr. A person standing on the road, behind the ambulance, listens to the siren sound coming from the ambulance as well as that coming after reflection from the wall. Calculate the apparent frequency of the sound wave (a) directly coming from the siren to the person, and (b) coming after reflection from the wall Take, speed of sound = 340 m/s

A scooterist moves towards a vertical wall with a speed of 54 km h^(-1) . A person is standing on the ground and is behind the scooter , hears the sound . If the scooterist sounds the horn of frequency 400 Hz , calculate the apparent frequency sound heard by the person when (a) It is coming directly from the horn. (b) coming after reflection from the vertical wall. (Take speed of sound to be 330 m s^(-1) )

A tuning fork of frequency 328Hz is moved towards a wall at a speed of 2ms^(-1) . An observer standing on the same side as the fork hears two sounds, one directly from the fork and the other reflected from the wall. Number of beats per second is (Velocity of sound in air 330ms^(-1) ).
