When the light source is moving towards an observer,

A source of sound produces wave of 60 cm wavelength. This source is moving towards north with a speed one-fifth the sound speed. Find the apparent wavelength of the waves in the north and south directions.

Assertion : The apparent frequency will remain same as the frequency of source of sound if source and listener move at right angles to each other. Reason : Apparent frequency will always increase whether source is moving towards the listener or listener is moving towards the source.

A source of sound produces waves of wave length 48cm . This source is moving towards north with speed 1//4 th that of sound the apparent wave length of the waves to an observer standing south of the moving source will be

A source of sound produces waves of wave length 48cm . This source is moving towards north with speed V//4 where V is speed of sound. The apparent wavelength of the waves to an observer standing south of the moving source will be

An observer is moving towards the stationary source of sound, then

The wavelength is 120 cm when the source is stationary. If the source is moving with relative velocity of 60 m / sec towards the observer, then the wavelength of the sound wave reaching to the observer will be (velocity of sound = 330 m / s )
