The driver of a car travelling with speed `30ms^-1` towards a hill sounds a horn of frequency 600 Hz. If the velocity of sound in air is `330ms^-1`, the frequency of reflected sound as heard by driver is

A

500 Hz

B

550 Hz

C

720 Hz

D

555 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Frequency of reflected sound heard by the driver is `f'=f((v-v_(0))/(v-v_(s)))`
`:." "f'=600[(330-(-30))/(330-30)]=720" Hz"`
