- 1Two trains $A$ and $B$ are moving with speeds $20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ and $30 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ respectively in the same direction on the same straight track, with $B$ ahead of $A$. The engines are at the front ends. The engine of train $A$ blows a long whistle.View Solution
Assume that the sound of the whistle is composed of components varying in frequency from $f_1=800 \mathrm{~Hz}$ to $f_2=1120 \mathrm{~Hz}$, as shown in the figure. The spread in the frequency (highest frequency - lowest frequency) is thus $320 \mathrm{~Hz}$. The speed of sound in still air is $340 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$.
