Two vehicles, each moving with speed `u` on the same horizontal straight road, are approaching each other. Wind blows along the road with velocity `w`. One of these vehicles blows a whistle of frequency `f_(1)`. An observer in the other vehicle hears the frequency of the whistle to be `f_(2)`. the speed of sound in still air is `V_C`. The correct statement `(s)` is (are)

A

If the wind blows from the observer to the source, `f_2 gt f_1`

B

If the wind blows from the source to the observer, `f_2 gt f_1`

C

If the wind blows from observer to the source, f_2 lt f_1`

D

If the wind blows from the source to the observer, `f_2 lt f_1`
