The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the perceived frequency of the sound emitted by submarine B after it reflects off submarine A. We will use the Doppler effect formula for sound.
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Convert Speeds from km/hr to m/s**:
- Speed of submarine A, \( V_A = 18 \, \text{km/hr} \)
- Speed of submarine B, \( V_B = 27 \, \text{km/hr} \)
To convert km/hr to m/s, we use the conversion factor \( \frac{1000 \, \text{m}}{3600 \, \text{s}} = \frac{5}{18} \).
\[
V_A = 18 \times \frac{5}{18} = 5 \, \text{m/s}
\]
\[
V_B = 27 \times \frac{5}{18} = 7.5 \, \text{m/s}
\]
2. **Identify the Frequencies**:
- The emitted frequency \( f = 500 \, \text{Hz} \).
- The speed of sound in water \( V = 1500 \, \text{m/s} \).
3. **Calculate the Frequency after Reflection (f1)**:
- Submarine B acts as the source and submarine A acts as the observer when the sound is emitted.
- Since both submarines are moving, we apply the Doppler effect formula:
\[
f' = f \left( \frac{V + V_B}{V - V_A} \right)
\]
Here, \( f' \) is the frequency heard by A after reflection, \( V_B \) is the speed of the source (B), and \( V_A \) is the speed of the observer (A).
\[
f_1 = 500 \left( \frac{1500 + 5}{1500 - 7.5} \right)
\]
\[
f_1 = 500 \left( \frac{1505}{1492.5} \right)
\]
4. **Calculate the Frequency Received by B (f2)**:
- Now, A acts as the source and B as the observer:
\[
f'' = f_1 \left( \frac{V + V_B}{V - V_A} \right)
\]
\[
f_2 = f_1 \left( \frac{1500 + 7.5}{1500 - 5} \right)
\]
Substitute \( f_1 \) from the previous step:
\[
f_2 = 500 \left( \frac{1505}{1492.5} \right) \left( \frac{1507.5}{1495} \right)
\]
5. **Final Calculation**:
- Calculate \( f_1 \) and then substitute to find \( f_2 \).
- After performing the calculations, we find:
\[
f_2 \approx 502 \, \text{Hz}
\]
### Conclusion:
The perceived frequency heard by submarine B after reflection from submarine A is approximately **502 Hz**.
