When a train approaches a stationary observer, the apparent frequency of the whistle is n' and when the same train recedes away from the observer, the apparent frequency is n'' . Then the apperent frquency n when the observer sitting in the train is :

(A): When an observer moves towards a stationary source, the frequency of sound heard is greater than the actual frequency (R) : Apparent frequency increases because the observer intercepts more number of waves when he moves towards the source.

The constituent waves of a stationary wave have amplitude frequency and velocity as 8 cm, 25 Hz and 150 cm s^(-1) respectively. What is the amplitude of the stationary wave at x=2cm

A tube closed at one end has a vibrating diaphragm at the other end , which may be assumed to be a displacement node . It is found that when the frequency of the diaphragm is 2000 Hz , a stationary wave pattern is set up in which the distance between adjacent nodes is 8 cm . When the frequency is gradually reduced , the stationary wave pattern reappears at a frequency of 1600 Hz . Calculate i. the speed of sound in air , ii. the distance between adjacent nodes at a frequency of 1600 Hz , iii. the distance between the diaphragm and the closed end , iv. the next lower frequencies at which stationary wave patterns will be obtained.
