A source of sound attached to the bob of a simple pendulum execute SHM . The difference between the apparent frequency of sound as received by an observer during its approach and recession at the mean frequency of the source . The velocity of the source at the mean position is ( velocity of sound in the air is 340 m//s) [Assume velocity of sound lt lt velocity of sound in air ]

Answer»

`1.4 m//s`
`3.4 m//s`
`1.7 m//s`
`2.1 m//s`

Solution :` f_(1) = f_(0) ((V_(0))/(V_(0) - V)) f_(2) = f_(0)((V_(0))/(V_(0) + V))`
`f_(1) - f_(2) = f_(0) V_(0) ((1)/( V_(0) - V) - (1)/( V_(0) + V))`
` = f_(0) V_(0) (V_(0) + V - V_(0) + V)/( V_(0)^(2) - V^(2)) = f_(0) V_(0) xx ( 2V)/( V_(0)^(2)) = f_(0) ( 2V)/( V_(0))`
given `( 2 Vf_(0))/(V_(0)) = 0.02 xx f_(0) rArr V = 0.01 V_(0) = 3.4 m//s`.
