One person moves towards a stationary source of sound with a speed (1)/(5) times the speed of sound. Sound emitted from the source has wavelength lamdaand frequency f. Frequency and wavelength of sound heard by this person are respectively ...... |

Answer» `0.8f,0.8 LAMDA` We have, `(f _(L))/( v + v _(L)) = (f _(S))/( v + v _(S))` `therefore (f _(L))/( v + (v)/(5)) = (f _(S))/( jv + 0)` `therefore (f_(L))/( (6v)/( 5)) = (f)/(v)` `therefore f _(L) = (6)/(5) f = 1.2 f` Here, velocity of sound wave w.r.t. listener is, `v = v _(L) = v + (v)/(5) = (6v)/(5) = 1.2v` Frequency of sound wave heard by listener is, `f _(L)1.2f` Now, if wavelength of sound wave heard by the person is `lamda _(L)` then, `v = v _(L) = f _(L) lamda _(L)` `thereforef 1.2 v = 1.2 f xx lamda _(L)` `therefore lamda _(L) = (v)/(f)` `therefore lamda _(L) = lamda ""(because v = f lamda)` |
