An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound of frequency n . The apparent frequency heard by him is 2 n . If the velocity of sound in air is 332 m/sec, then the velocity of the observer is

A

166 m/sec

B

664 m/sec

C

332 m/sec

D

1328 m/sec

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`n^(')=n((v+v_(0))/(v))rArr2n=n((v+v_(0))/(v))`
`rArr(v+v_(0))/(v)=2`
`rArrv_(0)=v=332" m"//sec`
