JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 14. waves and sound

A musician using an open flute of length \(50\,cm\) produces second harmonic sound waves. A person runs towards the musician from another end of a hall at a speed of \(10 \,km/h.\) If the wave speed is \(330\,m/s,\) the frequency heard by the running person shall be close to...... \(Hz\)

  1. A \(666\)
  2. B \(753\)
  3. C \(500\)
  4. D \(333\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(666\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f=\frac{2}{2 \ell} V_{s}=\frac{330}{0.5}=660 \mathrm{Hz}\) \( \therefore \quad f^{\prime}=f\left(\frac{v_{s}+v}{v_{s}}\right)=(660)\left(\frac{330+\frac{50}{18}}{330}\right)=660\left(1+\frac{50}{18 \times 330}\right)\) \(=666 \mathrm{Hz}\)
