A drone fitted with siren in flying directly away from the drone operator and towards a distant building at a speed of \(15 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). The siren produces sound of frequency \(780 \mathrm{~Hz}\). What is the frequency that the operator hears in the echo reflected from the building. [Speed of sound is \(340 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\).]

  1. A \(766 \mathrm{~Hz}\)
  2. B \(800 \mathrm{~Hz}\)
  3. C \(816 \mathrm{~Hz}\)
  4. D \(840 \mathrm{~Hz}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(816 \mathrm{~Hz}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\[ \text { A drone fitted with siren as shown in the figure, } \] Given, speed of drones, \(v_s=15 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), actual frequency, \(n_0=780 \mathrm{~Hz}\) and speed of sound, \(v=340 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) As source is moving towards the building, so the…
