A) 529.2 Hz
B) 295.2 Hz
C) 440.5 Hz
D) 259.2 Hz
E) None of these
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
From Dopplers effect, the apparent change in frequency of a wave that is perceived by stationary observer is\[n={{n}_{0}}\left( \frac{v}{v-{{v}_{s}}} \right)\]where,\[v\]is speed of sound. Since, observer is not hearing any beats, the apparent frequency of the two cars should be equal. \[\therefore \] \[n=n\,\] \[504\left( \frac{v}{v-30} \right)=n\left( \frac{v}{v-15} \right)\] \[\therefore \] \[n=\frac{(330-15)\times 504}{(330-30)}\] \[=\frac{315\times 504}{300}=529.2\,Hz\]You need to login to perform this action.
