When source of sound moves towards a stationary observer, the wavelength of sound received by him

A wall is moving with velocity u and a source of sound moves with velocity (u)/(2) in the same direction as shown in the figure. Assuming that the sound travels with velocity 10u , the ratio of incident sound wavelength on the wall to the reflected sound wavelength by the wall is equal to

When the observer moves towards the stationary source with velocity, v_1 , the apparent frequency of emitted note is f_1 . When the observer moves away from the source with velocity v_1 , the apparent frequency is f_2 . If v is the velocity of sound in air and f_1/f_2 = 2,then v/v_1 = ?

An observer is approaching with a speed v , towards a stationary source emitting sound waves of wavelength lambda_0 . The wavelength shift detected by the observer is ( Take c= speed of sound )

A car moving with a velocity v_1 overtakes a person moving with a velocity v_2 . The ratio of frequencies of sound Just before and after overtaking, is:

In the figure shown, a source of sound of frequency 510 Hz moves with constant velocity v_S=20(m)/(s) in the direction shown. The wind is blowing at a constant velocity v_W=20(m)/(s) towards an observer who is at rest at point B. corresponding to the sound emitted by the source at initial position A, the frequency detected by the observer is equal to (speed of sound relative to air is 330(m)/(s) )

A curve is plotted to represenet the dependence of the ratio of the received frequency f to the frequency f_0 emitted by the source on the ratio of the speed of obsever V_(ob) to the speed of sound V_(sound) in a situation in which an observer is moving towards a stationary sound source. The curve is best represnted by :
