A plane mirror M is arranged parallel to a wall W at a distance l from it. The light produced by a point source S kept on the wall is reflected by the mirror and produces a patch of light on the wall. The mirroo moves with velocity v towards the wall.
Which of the following statement(s) is`//`are correct?

A

The patch of light will move with speed v on the wall

B

The patch of light will not move on the wall

C

As the mirror comes closer, then patch of light will become larger and shift away from the wall with speed larger than v

D

The size of the path light on the wall remains the same

A point source of light S is placed on the major optical axis of the concave mirror at a distance of 60 cm. At what distance from the concave mirror should a flat mirror be placed for the rays to converge again at the point S having been reflected from the concave mirror and then from the flat one? Will the position of the point where the rays meet change if they are first reflected from the flat mirror? The radius of the concave mirror is 80 cm.

There is a source of sound (a tuning fork) moving towards a reflecting wall will a speed of 30 ms^(-1) . The velocity of the sound in air is 330 ms^(-1) and the frequency of the tuning fork is 600 Hz. The observer is between the source and the wall and is moving with some velocity V_(1) towards the wall. The beat frequency heard by the observer is 4 Hz. If the tuning fork is waxed, the frequency beats heard by the observer becomes 3 Hz. If the new frequency of tuning fork is k then k//50 is
