JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 14. waves and sound
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 source considering speed of sound in air \(340\, {m} / {s}\) will be \({Hz}\)
- A \(1050\)
- B \(750\)
- C \(2025\)
- D \(2250\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(2025\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\({V}_{{S}}=20 {m} / {s} \quad {V}_{{O}}=20 {m} / {s}\) \({f}^{\prime}={f}\left(\frac{{V}-{V}_{0}}{{V}+{V}_{{s}}}\right)\) \(1800={f}\left(\frac{340-20}{340+20}\right)\) \({f}=2025 {Hz}\)
