उत्तर
Given:
Speed of sound in air v = 340 m/s
Length of open organ pipe L = 20 cm = 20 × 10−2 m
Fundamental frequency \[\left( f \right)\] of an open organ pipe :
\[f = \left( \frac{v}{2L} \right) = \frac{340}{2 \times 20 \times {10}^{- 2}}=850\text { Hz }\]
First overtone frequency \[\left( f_1 \right)\] :
f1 = \[2f\]
\[\Rightarrow f_1 = \left( \frac{2V}{2I} \right) = 2 \times 850 = 1700 \text{ Hz }\]
Second overtone frequency \[\left( f_2 \right)\] :
\[f_2 = 3f\]\[ \Rightarrow f_2 = 3\left( \frac{V}{2L} \right) = 3 \times 850 = 2550 \text { Hz }\]

A traffic policeman sounds a whistle to stop a car-driver approaching towards him. The car-driver does not stop and takes the plea in court that because of the Doppler shift, the frequency of the whistle reaching him might have gone beyond the audible limit of 25 kHz and he did not hear it. Experiments showed that the whistle emits a sound with frequency closed to 16 kHz. Assuming that the claim of the driver is true, how fast was he driving the car?
