To solve the problem, we need to determine the number of beats heard by each person (X and Y) when X starts moving towards Y with a velocity of 2 m/s. The frequency of the whistle produced by both X and Y is 550 Hz. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Information:** - Frequency of whistle produced by X (f₁) = 550 Hz - Frequency of whistle produced by Y (f₂) = 550 Hz - Velocity of X moving towards Y (vₓ) = 2 m/s ...
