    If a source approaches and recedes from observer with same velocity, the ratio of frequencies (apparent) is \[6:5\], then velocity of source is:\[({{v}_{s}}=330\,\,m/s)\]

    A) \[20\,\,m/s\]                    

    B) \[10\,\,m/s\]

    C) \[30\,\,m/s\]                    

    D)  \[33\,\,m/s\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    From Doppler's effect, the perceived frequency when source approaches observer is                 \[n'=n\left( \frac{v}{v-{{v}_{s}}} \right)\]                                              ? (i) When source recedes the observer                 \[n'\,\,'=n\left( \frac{v}{v+{{v}_{s}}} \right)\]                                      ... (ii) From Eq. (i) and (ii), we get                 \[\frac{n'}{n'\,\,'}=\frac{v+{{v}_{s}}}{v-{{v}_{s}}}\]                 \[\frac{6}{5}=\frac{330+{{v}_{s}}}{330-{{v}_{s}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[1980-6{{v}_{s}}=1650+5{{v}_{s}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[11{{v}_{s}}=1980-1650=330\]                     \[{{v}_{s}}=\frac{330}{11}=30\,\,m/s\]
