An engine driver moving towards a wall with velocity of `50 ms^(-1)` emits a note of frequnecy `1.2 kHz`. The frequency of note after reflection from the wall as heard by the engine driver when speed of sound in air is `350 ms^(-1)` is :

A

2.4 kHz

B

0.24 kHz

C

1.6 kHz

D

1.2 kHz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Frequency heard by the engine driver is
`n'=((v+v_(o))/(v-v_(s)))n`
`=((350+50)/(350-50))xx1.2=1.6kHz`
