A police car with a siren of frequency `8 KHz` is moving with uniform velocity `36 Km//hr` towards a ball building which reflects the sound waves. The speed of sound in air is `320 m//s`. The frequency of the siren heard by the car driver is
A. 8.25 kHz
B. 8.50 kHz
C. 7.75 kHz
D. 7.50 kHz
A. 8.25 kHz
B. 8.50 kHz
C. 7.75 kHz
D. 7.50 kHz
Correct Answer – B
`n_(“inicident”) = n_(“reflected”) = (320)/(320 – 10) xx 8 kHz`
`n_(“observed”) = (320 + 10)/(320) n_(“reflected”)`
`= 8 xx (330)/(310) = 8.51 kHz = 8.5 kHz`
