MCQ
An Indian submarine and an enemy submarine move towards each other during maneuvers in motionless water in the Indian ocean. The Indian submarine moves at $50 km/h$, and the enemy submarine at $70 km/h$. The Indian sub sends out a sonar signal (sound wave in water) at $1000 Hz$. Sonar waves travel at $5500 km/h$. What is the frequency detected by the Indian submarine .... $kHz$
  • $1.02$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $2.5$
  • D
    $4.7$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.02$
a
(a) Frequency detected by Indian submarine

$n' = n\,\left[ {\frac{{v + {v_{sub}}}}{{v - {v_{sub}}}}} \right] = 1000\,\left[ {\frac{{5500 + 50}}{{5500 - 50}}} \right] \approx 1.02\,kHz.$
