    Two vehicles, each moving with speed $u$ on the same horizontal straight road, are approaching each other. Wind blows along the road with velocity $w$. One of these vehicles blows a whistle of frequency $f_1$. An observer in the other vehicle hears the frequency of the whistle to be $f _2$. The speed of sound in still air is $V$. The correct statement$(s)$ is (are) :

    $(A)$ If the wind blows from the observer to the source, $f_2 > f_1$.

    $(B)$ If the wind blows from the source to the observer, $f_2 > f_1$.

    $(C)$ If the wind blows from the observer to the source, $f _2 < f _1$.

    $(D)$ If the wind blows from the source to the observer, $f _2 < f _1$.
