One train is approaching an observer at ...

One train is approaching an observer at rest and another train is receding from him with the same velocity `4 m//s` . Both trains blow whistles of same frequency of `243 H_(Z)` . The beat frequency in `H_(Z)` as heard by observer is (speed of sound in air = `320 m//s`)

A

`10`

B

`6`

C

`4`

D

`1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`V_(S_(1))=V_(S_(2))=4m//s`, `n=243Hz`, `Deltan~~(2nV_(S))/(V)`

A stationary observer receives sonic oscillations from two tuning forks one of which approaches and the other recedes with the same velocity. As this takes place, the observer hears the beats of frequency f = 2.0 H_(Z) . Find the velocity of each tuning fork if their oscillation frequency is f_(o) = 680 H_(Z) and the velocity of sound in air is upsilon = 340 m//s .
