B

`(f_(a) - f_(r))/(2)`

C

`sqrt(f_(a)f_(r))`

D

`(2f_(r)f_(a))/(f_(r) + f_(a))`

A source of sound emitting a note of frequency 200 Hz moves towards an observer with a velocity v equal to the velocity of sound. If the observer also moves away from the source with the same velocity v, the apparent frequency heard by the observer is

A source of sound with frequency 256 Hz is moving with a velocity V towards a wall and an observer is stationary between the source and the wall. When the observer is between the source and the wall he will hear beats.

A source of sound with frequency 256 Hz is moving with a velocity V towards a wall and an observer is stationary between the source and the wall. When the observer is between the source and the wall will he hear beats?

A source of sound is travelling towards a stationary observer. The frequency of sound heard by the observer is 25% more that the actual frequency. If the speed of sound is v, that of the source is

A source of sound emits sound waves at frequency f_(0) . It is moving towards an observer with fixed speed v_(s)(v_(s) lt v where v is the speed in air). If the observer were to move towards the source with speed v_(0) one of the following two graphs (A and B) will give the correct variation of the frequency f heard by the observer as v_(0) is changed, The variation of f with v_(0) is given correctly by :-

A sound source emitting sound of frequency 450 Hz is approaching a stationary observer with velocity 30 ms^(-1) and another identical source is going away from the observer with the same velocity. If the velocity of sound is 330 ms^(-1) , then the difference of frequencies heard by observer is

An isotropic stationary source is emitting waves of frequency n and wind is blowing due north. An observer A is on north of the source while observer B is on south the source. IF both the observers are stationary, then

A source of sound and an observer are approaching each other with the same speed, which is equal to (1/10) times the speed of sound. The apparent relative change in frequency of source is

An observer starts moving with unifrom acceleration a towards a stationary sound soure of frequency f_(o) . As the observer approaches the source ,the apparent frequency f heard by the observer varies with time t as

(A): Apparent frequency is equal to actual frequency when there is no relative motion between source and observer. (R): When there is no relative motion between the source and observer the velocity of sound is zero
