The driver of a car treavelling with speed `30 ms ^(-1)` toward a hill sounds a horn of frequenvy 600 Hz. If the velocity of sound in air is `300ms^(-1)` the frequency of reflected sound as heard by diver is

A

500 Hz

B

550Hz

C

555.5Hz

D

720 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`n'=v((c+u)/(c-u))`
`=600((330+30)/(330-30))=720Hz`
