(b) $n' = n\,\left( {\frac{{v - {v_o}}}{{v + {v_s}}}} \right) = 750\,\left( {\frac{{330 - 180 \times \frac{5}{{18}}}}{{330 + 108 \times \frac{5}{{18}}}}} \right) = 625$$Hz$

    A train moves towards a stationary observer with speed $34\, m/s$. The train sounds a whistle and its frequency registered by the observer is $f_1$. If the speed of the train is reduced to $17\, m/s$, the frequency registered is $f_2$. If speed of sound is $340\, m/s$, then the ratio $f_1/f_2$ is
