A stationary source emits sound waves of frequency $500\, Hz$. Two observers moving along a line passing through the source detect sound to be of frequencies $480\, Hz$ and $530\, Hz$. Their respective speeds are, in $m\,s^{-1}$ (Given speed of sound $= 300\, m/s$)

$ v= \frac{v+v_{0}}{v} v_{0}$
$\Rightarrow v_{0}=\left(\frac{v}{v_{0}}-1\right) v$
$v_{0}=\left(\frac{530}{500}-1\right) 300=18 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$
$v_{0}=\left|\left(\frac{480}{500}-1\right) 300\right|=12 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$
