    A source is approaching a stationary observer with velocity \[{{\left( \frac{1}{10} \right)}^{th}}\]that of sound. Ratio of observed and real frequencies will be:

    A)  \[\frac{9}{10}\]                  

    B)  \[\frac{11}{10}\]

    C)  \[\frac{10}{17}\]                    

    D)  \[\frac{10}{9}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    According to Doppler effect in sound we have \[f={{f}_{0}}\left[ \frac{{{V}_{sound}}-{{V}_{observer}}}{{{V}_{sound}}-{{V}_{source}}} \right]\] Here, \[{{V}_{observer}}=0,\] because observer is stationary Given that: Let   \[{{V}_{sound}}=V,\]   \[{{V}_{source}}=\frac{V}{10}\] \[\therefore \]  \[f'={{f}_{0}}\left[ \frac{V}{V-\frac{V}{10}} \right]={{f}_{0}}\left[ \frac{1}{9/10} \right]=\frac{10}{9}{{f}_{0}}\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{f'}{{{f}_{0}}}=\frac{10}{9}\]
