An observer is riding on a bicycle and moving towards a hill at $18\,km\,h ^{-1}$. He hears a sound from a source at some distance behind him directly as well as after its reflection from the hill. If the original frequency of the sound as emitted by source is $640\,\,Hz$ and velocity of the sound in air is $320\,m / s$, the beat frequency between the two sounds heard by observer will be $...Hz$.

    Two uniform strings of mass per unit length $\mu$ and $4 \mu$, and length $L$ and $2 L$, respectively, are joined at point $O$, and tied at two fixed ends $P$ and $Q$, as shown in the figure. The strings are under a uniform tension $T$. If we define the frequency $v_0=\frac{1}{2 L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$, which of the following statement($s$) is(are) correct?

    $(A)$ With a node at $O$, the minimum frequency of vibration of the composite string is $v_0$
