    Two loudspeakers $M$ and $N$ are located $20 \mathrm{~m}$ apart and emit sound at frequencies $118 \mathrm{~Hz}$ and $121 \mathrm{~Hz}$, respectively. $A$ car is initially at a point $P, 1800 \mathrm{~m}$ away from the midpoint $Q$ of the line $M N$ and moves towards $Q$ constantly at $60 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{hr}$ along the perpendicular bisector of $M N$. It crosses $Q$ and eventually reaches a point $R, 1800(m$ away from $Q$. Let $v(t)$ represent the beat frequency measured by a person sitting in tlie car at time $t$.
