For point source, the wavefront is

A source of sound moves towards an observe.

The frequency of a source of sound as measured by an observer when the source is moving towards him with a speed of 30 m/s is 720 Hz. The apparent frequency when the source is moving away after crossing the observer is x xx 10^2 Hz what is the value of x. ......... (velocity of sound is 330 m/s)

Two sources of sound moving with same speed v and emitting frequency of 1400 Hz are moving such that one source s_1 is moving towards the observer and s_2 is moving away from observer. If observer hears beat frequency of 2 Hz. Then find the speed of source. Given v_(sound) gt gt v_(source) and v_(sound) = 350m/s

A source is moving towards an observer with a speed of 20 m / s and having frequency of 240 Hz . The observer is now moving towards the source with a speed of 20 m / s . Apparent frequency heard by observer, if velocity of sound is 340 m / s , is

A sound source is moving towards a stationary observer with 1/10 of the speed of sound. The ratio of apparent to real frequency is

A source emitting a sound of frequency f is placed at a large distance from an observer. The source starts moving towards the observer with a uniform acceleration a. Find the frequency heard by the observer corresponding to the wave emitted just after the source starts. The speed of sound in the medium is v.
