प्रश्न
N tuning forks are arranged in order of increasing frequency and any two successive tuning forks give n beats per second when sounded together. If the last fork gives double the frequency of the first (called as octave), Show that the frequency of the first tuning fork is f = (N – 1)n.

उत्तर
Total number of fork = N
The frequency of the 1st fork = f
The frequency of the last fork = 2f
∴ an = a + (n – 1)d
2f = f + (N – 1)n
2f – f = (N – 1)n
∴ f = (N – 1)n

In discussing Doppler effect, we use the word "apparent frequency". Does it mean that the frequency of the sound is still that of the source and it is some physiological phenomenon in the listener's ear that gives rise to Doppler effect? Think for the observer approaching the source and for the source approaching the observer.
State the expression for apparent frequency when listener is stationary and source is moving towards the listener.
What is meant by the Doppler effect?
Discuss the following case-
Observer in motion and Source at rest.
- Observer moves towards Source
- Observer resides away from the Source
The speed of a wave in a certain medium is 900 m/s. If 3000 waves passes over a certain point of the medium in 2 minutes, then compute its wavelength?
Two cars moving in opposite directions approach each other with speed of 22 m/s and 16.5 m/s respectively. The driver of the first car blows a horn having a frequency 400 Hz. The frequency heard by the driver of the second car is [velocity of sound 340 m/s]: ____________.
A train, standing in a station yard, blows a whistle of frequency 400 Hz in still air. The wind starts blowing in the direction from the yard to the station with a speed of 10 m/s. Given that the speed of sound in still air is 340 m/s ______.
- the frequency of sound as heard by an observer standing on the platform is 400 Hz.
- the speed of sound for the observer standing on the platform is 350 m/s.
- the frequency of sound as heard by the observer standing on the platform will increase.
- the frequency of sound as heard by the observer standing on the platform will decrease.
A source and a detector move away from each other in absence of wind with a speed of 20 m/s with respect to the ground. If the detector detects a frequency of 1800 Hz of the sound coming from the source, then the original frequency of the source considering the speed of sound in air 340 m/s will be ______ Hz.
The period of rotation of the sun at its equator is T and its radius is R. Then the Doppler wavelength shift expected for light with wavelength λ emitted from the edge of the sun's disc is: [c = speed of light]
The frequency of echo will be ______ Hz if the train blowing a whistle of frequency 320 Hz is moving with a velocity of 36 km/h towards a hill from which an echo is heard by the train driver. The velocity of sound in air is 330 m/s.
