A whistle producing sound waves of frequency9500 Hzabove is approaching a stationary person with speedv m s-1. The velocity of sound in air is300 m s-1. If the person can hear frequency up to a maximum of10,000 Hz, the maximum value ofvup to which he can hear the whistle is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

The velocity of sound in air=300 m s-1

Let v be the maximum value of source velocity for which the person is able to hear the sound, then

10000=fapp=300300-v×9500

⟹  v=15 m s-1
