A train moves towards a stationary observer with speed `34 m//s`. The train sound a whistle and its frequency registered by the observer by the observer is `f_(1)`. If the train's speed is reduced to `17 m//s`, the frequency registered is `f_(2)`. If the speed of sound is `340 m//s`, then the ratio `f_(1)//f_(2)` is

A

18/19

B

`1//2`

C

2

D

19/18

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`n_1=n_0(340)/(340-34)=10/9n_0`
`n_2=n_0(340)/(340-17)=20/19n_0`
`(n_1)/(n_2)=10/9xx19/20=19/18`
