A passenger is sitting in a fast moving train. The engine of the train blows a whistle of frequency ‘n\ If the apparent frequency of sound heard by the passenger is n', then

A train is moving with a uniform speed of 33 m//s and an observer is approaching the train with the same speed. If the train blows a whistle of frequency 1000 Hz and the velocity of sound is 333 m//s then the apparent frequency of the sound that the observer hears is

A train has just completed a U-curve in a track which is a semicircle. The engine is at the forward end of the semi-circular part of the track while the last carriage is at the rear end of the semi-circular track. The driver blows a whistle of frequency 200 Hz. Velocity of sound is 340 m//s . Then the apparent frequency as observed by a passenger in the middle of a train when the speed of the train is 30 m//s is

A person is standing on a railway platform. An engine blowing a whistle of frequency 640 Hz approaches him with a speed of 72 km//hr . The frequency of the note heard by the person is (velocity of sound is 340 m//s )

A train A is travelling at a speed of 108 km hr^(-1) . The train approaches another train B standing on the platform. The engine of the train B blows its hom. The frequency of the horn as observed by the driver in train A is 504 Hz. The frequency of the hom of train B is (speed of sound = 330 ms^(-1) )

Two aeroplanes A and B, each moving with a speed of 720 km/hour, are moving directly away from each other. Aeroplane A emits a whistle of frequency 1080 Hz. The apparent frequency heard by a person in plane B will be (velocity of sound in air = 340 m//s )

A siren placed at a railway platform is emitting a sound of frequency 5 kHz. A passenger sitting in a moving train ‘A’ records the frequency of the siren as 5.5 kHz. During his return journey by train ‘B’ he records the frequency of the siren as 6 kHz. The ratio of the speed of train B to that of train A is

An observer starts moving with uniform acceleration ‘a’ towards a stationary sound source emitting a whistle of frequency ‘n\ As the observer approaches source, the apparent frequency heard by the observer varies with time as

A train is moving on a straight track with speed 20 ms^(-1) . It is blowing its whistle at the frequency of 1000 Hz. The percentage change in the frequency heard by a person standing near the track as the train passes him is (speed of sound = 320 ms^(-1) ) close to

A railway engine whistling at a constant frequency moves with a constant speed and it goes past a stationary observer standing beside the railway track. Then the frequency of (n') of the sound heard by the observer with respect to time (t) can be best represented by which of the following curve?
