A source emits sound of frequency 600 Hz inside water. The frequency heard in air (velocity of sound in water = 1500 m/s , velocity of sound in air = 300 m/s) will be

A

300 Hz

B

120 Hz

C

600 Hz

D

6000 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Frequency does not change when sound travels from one medium to another
`therefore` Frequency of sound in air = Frequency of sound in water = 600 Hz
