Answer»

`31m//s`
`41m//s`
`51m//s`
`21m//s`

SOLUTION :
The sound REFLECTED from mountain appears to be coming from mirror of SOURCE. Thus image appears to be moving TOWARDS the vehicle (DRIVER) `v_(0)=v_(s)=x :.n.=n((V+V_(0))/(V-V_(s)))`
`:.(l_("air"))/(l_("water"))=sqrt((T_("air"))/(T_("water")))`
