An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound, with a speed of one-fifth of the speed of sound. The apparent increase in the frequency heard by the observer is

  1. A \(16.67 \%\)
  2. B \(2 \%\)
  3. C \(25 \%\)
  4. D \(20 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(20 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

From the Doppler's effect \[ f^{\prime}=f_0\left(\frac{v_0 \pm v_0}{v \pm v_s}\right) \] \(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{s}}=\) velocity of source \(\mathrm{v}_0=\) velocity of observer \(\mathrm{y}=\) velocity of sound Here \(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{s}}=0\)…
