A train is moving with a uniform speed of 33 m/s and an observer is approaching the train with the same speed. If the train blows a whistle of frequency 1000 Hz and the velocity of sound is 333 m/s, then the apparent frequency of the sound that the observer hears is

A

1220 Hz

B

1099 Hz

C

1110 Hz

D

1200 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`f.=f((v+v_(o))/(v-v_(s)))`
`=1000(333+33)/(333-33)=1000xx(366)/(300)=1220Hz`

A train moving at 40 m/s, passes by a stationary observer, emitting a whistle of frequency 300 Hz. If the velocity of sound wave is 340 m/s, then the change in the apparent frequency of the sound, just before and after the train passes by the observer will be nearly

A car is moving along X-axis with a velocity v=20m//s . It sounds a whistle of frequency 660 Hz. If the speed of sound is 340m//s . The apparent frequency heard by the observer O (shown in figure) is:

An automobile moving at 30 m/s is approaching a factory whistle that has a frequency of 500 Hz. If the speed of the sound in air is 340 m/s, then the apparent frequency of the whistle as heard by the driver is

A source of sound is approaching an observer with speed of 30 m/s and the observer is approaching the source with a speed 60 m/s. Then the fractional change in the frequency of sound in air (330 m/s) is

A train has just completed a U-curve in a trach which is a semi circle. The engine is at the forward end of the semi circular part of the trach while the last carriage is at the rear end of the semi circular track. The driver blows a whistle of frequency 200 Hz. Velocity of sound is 340(m)/(s) . Then the apparent frequency as observed by a passenger in the middle of the train, when the speed of the train is 30 m/s, is

A source and an observer approach each other with same velocity 50 m/s. If the apparent frequency is 434 Hz, then the real frequency is (Given velocity of sound = 332 m/s)

Two trains are moving towards each other at speeds of 20 m/s and 15 m/s relative to the ground. The first train sounds a whistle of frequency 600 Hz . the frequency of the whistle heard by a passenger in the second train before the train meets is (the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s )

The speed of sound in air at a given temperature is 350 m/ s. An engine blows whistle at a frequency of 1200 cps. It is approaching the observer with velocity 50 m/s. The apparent frequency in cps heard by the observer will be
