प्रश्न
A traffic policeman standing on a road sounds a whistle emitting the main frequency of 2.00 kHz. What could be the apparent frequency heard by a scooter-driver approaching the policeman at a speed of 36.0 km h−1? Speed of sound in air = 340 m s−1.

उत्तर
Velocity of sound in air v = 340 ms−1
Velocity of scooter-driver \[v_o\]= 36 kmh−1 =
\[36 \times \frac{5}{18} = 10 {\text { ms }}^{- 1}\]
Frequency of sound of whistle \[f_o\]= 2 kHz
Apparent frequency \[\left( f \right)\] heard by the scooter-driver approaching the policeman is given by :
\[f = \left( \frac{v + v_o}{v} \right) \times f_o\]
\[f = \left( \frac{340 + 10}{340} \right) \times 2\]
\[ = \frac{350 \times 2}{340} \text { kHz }\]
\[ = 2 . 06 \text{ kHz }\]

The two sources of sound, S1 and S2, emitting waves of equal wavelength 20.0 cm, are placed with a separation of 20.0 cm between them. A detector can be moved on a line parallel to S1 S2 and at a distance of 20.0 cm from it. Initially, the detector is equidistant from the two sources. Assuming that the waves emitted by the sources are in detector should be shifted to detect a minimum of sound.
