To solve the problem of determining the percentage change in frequency of sound as detected by the listener when both the source and observer are approaching each other with a speed equal to half the speed of sound, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Doppler Effect Formula**: The apparent frequency \( f' \) when both the source and observer are moving towards each other is given by the formula: \[ f' = \frac{v + v_o}{v - v_s} \cdot f ...

Show that when the speed of the source and the observer are small compared to the speed of sound in the medium, the change in frequency becomes independent of the fact whether the source is moving or the observer.

How does the speed of sound change with change in wavelength of sound wave ?

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound. The percentage change in the apparent frequency is

A source and a detector move away from each other, each with a speed of 10 m/s with respect to ground with no wind. If the detector detects a frequency 1650 Hz of the sound coming from the source, what is the original frequency of the source? (speed of sound = 340 m/s

If source and observer both are relatively at rest and if speed of sound is increased then frequency heard by observer will

A source and a detector move away from each other, each with a speed of 10 ms^-1 with respect to the ground with no wind. If the detector detects a frequency 1950 Hz of the sound coming from the source, what is the original frequency of the source? Speed of sound in air =340 ms^-1 .

A stationary observer receives sound from two identical tuning forks, one of which approaches and the other one recedes with the same speed (much less than the speed of sound). The observer hears 2 beats/ sec. The oscillation frequency of each tuning fork is v_(0)=1400 Hz and the velocity of sound in air is 350 m/s. The speed of each tuning fork is close to :
