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).
- A \(v / 2\)
- B \(3 v\)
- C \(20 \quad\)
- D \(v\)
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,…
