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

  • question_answer
    A sound source is moving towards a stationary observer with 1/10 of the speed of sound. The ratio of apparent to real frequency is                       [CPMT 1977; NCERT 1977; KCET 2001, 03]

    A)            10/9                                         

    B)            11/10

    C)            \[{{(11/10)}^{2}}\]             

    D)            \[{{(9/10)}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               \[n'=n\,\left( \frac{v}{v-{{v}_{S}}} \right)=n\,\left( \frac{v}{v-v/10} \right)\,\]Þ \[\frac{n'}{n}=\frac{10}{9}\]
