MCQ
A source of sound of frequency $450$ cycles/sec is moving towards a stationary observer with $34\, m/sec$ speed. If the speed of sound is $340\, m/sec,$ then the apparent frequency will be ..... $cycles/sec$
  • A
    $410$
  • $500$
  • C
    $550$
  • D
    $450$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$500$
b
(b) $n' = n\,\left( {\frac{v}{{v - {v_0}}}} \right) = 450\,\left( {\frac{{340}}{{340 - 34}}} \right) = 500$ $cycles/\sec $

A particle of mass $m$ is projected from the ground with an initial speed $u_0$ at an angle $\alpha$ with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory, it makes a completely inelastic collision with another identical particle, which was thrown vertically upward from the ground with the same initial speed $u_0$. The angle that the composite system makes with the horizontal immediately after the collision is :
An oscillator of mass $M$  is at rest in its equilibrium position in a potential $V\, = \,\frac{1}{2}\,k{(x - X)^2}.$ A particle of mass $m$  comes from right with speed $u$  and collides completely inelastically with $M$ and sticks to it . This process repeats every time the oscillator crosses its equilibrium position .The amplitude of oscillations after $13$  collisions is: $(M = 10,\, m = 5,\, u = 1,\, k = 1 ).$
