Q16 / 117 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Physics · Waves and Sound

A train moves towards a stationary observer with speed 34 m/s . The train sound a whistle and its frequency registered by the observer is f1 . If the train' s speed is reduced to 17 m/s , the frequency registered is f2 . If the speed of sound is 340 m/s , then the ratio of f1f2 is

  • A
    18/19
  • B
    1/2
  • C
    2
  • Correct answer
    D
    19/18

Solution

f1=vv-vsf⁡=340340-34f⁡=340306f &

f2=340340-17f⁡=340323f

f1f2=1918

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
