A police car moving at 22 m/s, chases a motorcylist. The police man sounds his horn at 176 Hz, while both of them move towards a stationary siren of frequency 165 Hz. Calculate the speed of the motorcycle, if it is given that he does not observes any beats A. 33 m/sB. 22 m/sC. zeroD. 11 m/s

Answer» Correct Answer - B
The motorcyclist observes no beats, So, the apparent frequency observed by him from the two sources must be equal.
` f_(1)=f_(2):.176((330-v)/(330-22))=165((330+v)/(330))`
Solving this equation, we get `v = 22 m//s`.
