With what velocity an observer should move relative to a stationary source so that he hears a sound of double the frequency of source
A
Velocity of sound towards the source
B
Velocity of sound away from the source
C

A
Velocity of sound towards the source
a (a)By using $n' = n\,\left( {\frac{v}{{v - {v_S}}}} \right)$
$2n = n\,\left( {\frac{{v - {v_O}}}{{v - 0}}} \right)$ ==> ${v_O} = - v = - $(Speed of sound)
Negative sign indicates that observer is moving opposite to the direction of velocity of sound, as shown

The mass per unit length of a uniform wire is $0.135\, g / cm$. A transverse wave of the form $y =-0.21 \sin ( x +30 t )$ is produced in it, where $x$ is in meter and $t$ is in second. Then, the expected value of tension in the wire is $x \times 10^{-2} N$. Value of $x$ is . (Round-off to the nearest integer)
A policeman on duty detects a drop of $10\%$ in the pitch of the horn of a moving car as it crosses him. If the velocity of sound is $330 \,m/s,$ the speed of the car will be ..... $m/s$
What should be the velocity of a sound source moving towards a stationary observer so that apparent frequency is double the actual frequency (Velocity of sound is $v$)
Two tuning forks when sounded together produced $4$ beats/sec. The frequency of one fork is $256.$ The number of beats heard increases when the fork of frequency $256$ is loaded with wax. The frequency of the other fork is
Stationary waves of frequency $300\, Hz$ are formed in a medium in which the velocity of sound is $1200$ metre/sec. The distance between a node and the neighbouring antinode is ... $m$
