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

  • question_answer
    A vehicle with a horn of frequency n is moving with a velocity of 30 m/s in a direction perpendicular to the straight line joining the observer and the vehicle. The observer perceives the sound to have a frequency\[n+{{n}_{1}}\]. Then (if the sound velocity in air is 300 m/s) [CBSE PMT 1998; AIIMS 2000]

    A)            \[{{n}_{1}}=10\,n\]            

    B)            \[{{n}_{1}}=0\]

    C)            \[{{n}_{1}}=0.1\,n\]          

    D)            \[{{n}_{1}}=-0.1\,n\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               In this case Doppler?s effect is not applicable.
