A sound source is moving towards a stationary observer with 1/10 of the speed of sound. The ratio of apparent to real frequency is

A

`10//9`

B

`11//10`

C

`(11//10)^(2)`

D

`(9//10)^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

We use
`n' = n((v)/(v - v_(S))) = n((v)/(v - v//10))`
`(n')/(n) = (10)/(9)`
