A whistle of frequency 540 H(Z) rotates ...

A whistle of frequency `540 H_(Z)` rotates in a circle of radius `2 m`at a linear speed of `30 m//s` . What is the lowest and highest frequency heard by an observer a long distance away at rest with respect to the centre of circle ? Take speed of sound of sound in air as `330 m//s`. Can the apparent frequency be ever equal to actual ?

To solve the problem, we need to find the lowest and highest frequencies heard by an observer a long distance away from a rotating whistle. We will use the Doppler effect formula for sound waves to calculate these frequencies. ### Given Data: - Frequency of the whistle, \( f = 540 \, \text{Hz} \) - Speed of sound in air, \( V = 330 \, \text{m/s} \) - Linear speed of the whistle, \( V_s = 30 \, \text{m/s} \) ### Step 1: Calculate the Minimum Frequency ...
