Atrain approaching a railway platform with a speed of 20 ms^(-1) starts blowing the whistle. Speed of sound in air is 340 ms^(-1) . If the frequency of the emitted sound from the whistle is 640 Hz, the frequency of sound to a person standing on the platform will appear to be |

Answer» 600 Hz frequency of the source, `v_(0) = 640 Hz` The frequency heard by the person standing on the PLATFORM is, `u.=u_(0) v/(v-v_(s)) = 640 XX [340/(340 -20)] = (640 xx 340)/320 = 680` Hz |
