JEE Main & Advanced Physics Wave Mechanics Question Bank Doppler's Effect

  • question_answer
    What should be the velocity of a sound source moving towards a stationary observer so that apparent frequency is double the actual frequency (Velocity of sound is v) [MP PMT 2002]

    A)            v    

    B)            2v

    C)            \[\frac{v}{2}\]                      

    D)            \[\frac{v}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               By using \[n'=\left( \frac{v}{v-{{v}_{S}}} \right)\Rightarrow 2n=n\,\left( \frac{v}{v-{{v}_{S}}} \right)\Rightarrow {{v}_{S}}\,=\frac{v}{2}\]
