उत्तर

Given:
Velocity of bullet \[v_s\]= 220 ms−1
Speed of sound in air v = 330 ms−1
Let the frequency of the bullet be f.

Apparent frequency heard by the person \[\left( f_1 \right)\] before crossing the bullet is given by:

\[f_1  = \left( \frac{v}{v - v_s} \right) \times f\]

On substituting the values, we get :

\[f_1  = \left( \frac{330}{330 - 220} \right) \times f = 3f     .  .  .  . \left( 1 \right)\]

Apparent frequency heard by the person \[\left( f_2 \right)\] after crossing the bullet is given by : 

\[f_2  = \left( \frac{v}{v + v_s} \right) \times f\]

On substituting the values, we get :

\[f_2  = \left( \frac{330}{330 + 220} \right) \times f = 0 . 6f       .  .  .  .  . \left( 2 \right)\]

So,

\[  \left( \frac{f_2}{f_1} \right) = \frac{0 . 6f}{3f} = 0 . 2\]

∴ Fractional change = 1 − 0.2 = 0.8
