Question

A source of sound and a listener are moving towards each other The velocity of source is 20ms–1 If the velocity of sound is 340ms–1 and its frequency is 640 Hz Find the apparent frequency of the sound.

  1. 620 Hz    
  2. 720 Hz    
  3. 710 Hz    
  4. 610 Hz    

The correct answer is: 710 Hz


    If the source of sound and listener are moving towards each other, then the apparent frequency of sound is,
    n to the power of ∣ end exponent equals n open parentheses fraction numerator v plus v subscript 0 end subscript over denominator v minus v subscript s end subscript end fraction close parentheses equals 640 open parentheses fraction numerator 340 plus 15 over denominator 340 minus 20 end fraction close parentheses equals 710 H z
