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

A train blowing a whistle of frequency \(320\,Hz\) approaches an observer standing on the platform at a speed of \(66\,m / s\). The frequency observed by the observer will be (given speed of sound \(=330\,ms ^{-1}\) ) \(.............Hz\).

  1. A \(320\)
  2. B \(400\)
  3. C \(300\)
  4. D \(180\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(400\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f_{a p p}=f\left(\frac{v}{v-v_s}\right)\) \(=320\left(\frac{330}{330-66}\right)\) \(=400\,Hz\)
