    The pressure wave, $P = 0.01\,sin\,[1000t -3x]\,Nm^{-2},$ corresponds to the sound produced by a vibrating blade on a day when atmospheric temperature is $0\,^oC.$ On some other day when temperature is $T,$ the speed of sound produced by the same blade and at the same frequency is found to be $336 \,ms^{-1}$. Approximate value of $T$ is .... $^oC$

    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 .... $kHz$
