A source of sound $S$ is moving with a velocity $50m/s$ towards a stationary observer. The observer measures the frequency of the source as $1000 Hz$. What will be the apparent frequency of the source when it is moving away from the observer after crossing him .... $Hz$ $?$ The velocity of sound in the medium is $350 m/s$
A$750$
B$857$
C$1143$

A$750$
a (a) By using $\frac{{{n_{{\rm{approaching}}}}}}{{{n_{{\rm{receding}}}}}} = \frac{{v + {v_s}}}{{v - {v_s}}}$
==> $\frac{{1000}}{{{n_r}}} = \frac{{350 + 50}}{{350 - 50}}$ ==> ${n_r} = 750Hz.$

Three coherent waves of equal frequencies having amplitude $10 \,\, \mu m$, $4\,\,\mu m$ and $7 \,\,\mu m$ respectively, arrive at a given point with successive phase difference of $\pi /2$. The amplitude of the resulting wave in $mm$ is given by
A tunning fork produces $5\, beats/sec$ when the length of a sonometer wire is either $1\, m$ or $1.05\, m$. Calculate the frequency of tunning fork .... $Hz$
An open pipe resonates with a tuning fork of frequency $500 Hz$. it is observed that two successive nodes are formed at distances $16$ and $46 cm $ from the open end. The speed of sound in air in the pipe is ..... $m/s$
A metal rod of $1\; m$ length, is dropped exact vertically on to a hard metal floor. With an oscilloscope, it is determined that the impact produces a longitudinal wave of $1.2 \;k Hz$ frequency. The speed of sound in the metal rod is
A man standing in front of a mountain beats a drum at regular intervals. The rate of drumming is generally increased and he finds that the echo is not heard distinctly when the rate becomes $40$ per minute. He then moves nearer to the mountain by $90 m$ and finds that echo is again not heard when the drumming rate becomes $60$ per minute. The distance between the mountain and the initial position of the man is .... $m$
A closed and an open organ pipe have same lengths. If the ratio of frequencies of their seventh overtones is $\left(\frac{a-1}{a}\right)$ then the value of $a$ is
A source of sound $A$ emitting waves of frequency $1800\,Hz$ is falling towards ground with a terminal speed $v.$ The observer $B$ on the ground directly beneath the source receives waves of frequency $2150\,Hz.$ The source $A$ receives waves, reflected from ground of frequency nearly ..... $Hz$ (Speed of sound $= 343\,m/s$ )
