COMEDK · Physics · 16. Waves and Sound

With what velocity should an observer approach a stationary sound source, so that the apparent frequency of sound should appear double the actual frequency? ( \(v\) is velocity of sound).

  1. A \(v / 2\)
  2. B \(3 v\)
  3. C \(20 \quad\)
  4. D \(v\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(v\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, sound source is stationary, \(v_{S}=0\) Apparent frequency, \(f^{\prime}=2 f\) where, \(f\) is actual frequency of sound. By using Doppler's effect,…
