A speeding motorcyclist sees traffic jam ahead him. He slows down to $36\,\, km\,\,hour^{-1}$ He finds that traffic has eased and a car moving ahead of him at $18 \,\, km\,\,hour^{-1}$ is honking at a frequency of $1392\,\, Hz.$ If the speed of sound is $343\, m s^{-1}$, the frequency of the honk as heard by him will be .... $Hz$
