MCQ
A source and an observer move away from each other with a velocity of $10\; m/s$ with respect to ground. If the observer finds the frequency of sound coming from the source as $1950 \;Hz$, then actual frequency of the source is .... $Hz$ (velocity of sound in air = $340\; m/s$)
  • A
    $1903$
  • $2068$
  • C
    $2100$
  • D
    $602$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2068$
b
$n' = n\,\left( {\frac{{v - {v_O}}}{{v + {v_S}}}} \right) = n\,\left( {\frac{{340 - 10}}{{340 + 10}}} \right) = 1950$

$ \Rightarrow $$n = 2068$$Hz$
