The engine of a train moving with speed \(10\,ms ^{-1}\) towards a platform sounds a whistle at frequency \(400\,Hz\). The frequency heard by a passenger inside the train is \(........\,Hz\) (neglect air speed. Speed of sound in air \(330\,ms ^{-1}\) )
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(400\) \(H_Z\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The relative velocity of a passenger with source of sound (engine) is \(0\). So there will be no doppler's effect. So frequency heard is \(400\,Hz\).
