प्रश्न
A train standing at the outer signal of a railway station blows a whistle of frequency 400 Hz still air. The train begins to move with a speed of 10 ms–1 towards the platform. What is the frequency of the sound for an observer standing on the platform? (sound velocity in air = 330 ms–1)

उत्तर
Frequency of train standing at the outer signal, vo = 400 Hz
Speed of train moving towards the platform, vs = 10 ms–1
The velocity of sound in air, va = 300 ms–1
Apparent frequency of the sound for an observer standing on the platform,
⇒ v' = `v_a/((v_a - v_s)) v_o`
⇒ v' = `(330 xx 400)/((330 - 10))` Hz
⇒ v' = `(330 xx 400)/320` Hz
⇒ v' = `825/2` Hz
⇒ v' = 412.5 Hz

A ship in a sea sends SONAR waves straight down into the seawater from the bottom of the ship. The signal reflects from the deep bottom bedrock and returns to the ship after 3.5 s. After the ship moves to 100 km it sends another signal which returns back after 2 s. Calculate the depth of the sea in each case and also compute the difference in height between two cases.
