A sound source is moving towards a stationary listener with \(1 / 10\) th of the speed of sound. The ratio of apparent to real frequency is

  1. A \(\frac{10}{9}\)
  2. B \(\frac{11}{10}\)
  3. C \(\left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^2\)
  4. D \(\left(\frac{9}{10}\right)^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{10}{9}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Speed of sound source towards stationary observer \(v_s=\frac{v}{10}\) where, \(v\) is the speed of sound. \(\therefore\) Apparent frequency, \(f^{\prime}=\left(\frac{v}{v-v_s}\right) f\)…
