When an observer moves away from a stationary source of sound, the apparent pitch will

A source producing sound of frequency 170 Hz is approaching a stationary observer with a velocity 17 ms^(-1) . The apparent change in the wavelength of sound heard by the observer is (speed of sound in air = 340 ms^(-1) )

A source producing sound of frequency 340 Hz is moving away from a stationary observer with a velocity of 34 ms^(-1) . The apparent change in wavelength of sound heard by the observer is (V = 340 ms^(-1))

Light enters from air into a medium of R.I. 1.5. What is the percentage change in its wavelength?

Statement I: Intensity of sound wave changes when the listener moves towards or away from the stationary source. Statement II: The motion of listener causes the apparent change in wavelength.

Assertion : A sound source is approaching towards a stationary observer along the tine joining them. Then , apparent frequency to the observer will go on increasing. Reason : If there is no relative motion between source and observer , apparent frequency is equal to the actual frequency.

When a source moves away from stationary observer with velocity v then apparent change in frequency is Deltan_(1) . When an observer approaches the stationary source with same velocity v then change in frequency is Deltan_(2) then
