Comprehension

\(S_1\) and \(S_2\) are two identical sound sources of frequency \(656\) \(Hz\). The source \(S_1\) is located at \(𝑂\) and \(𝑆_2\) moves anti-clockwise with a uniform speed \(4\sqrt2\)  \(m s ^{βˆ’1}\) on a circular path around \(𝑂\), as shown in the figure. There are three points \(𝑃\)\(𝑄\) and \(𝑅\) on this path such that \(𝑃\) and \(𝑅\) are diametrically opposite while \(𝑄\) is equidistant from them. A sound detector is placed at point \(𝑃\). The source \(𝑆_1\) can move along direction \(𝑂𝑃\). [Given: The speed of sound in air is \(324\) \(m s ^{βˆ’1}\) ]

Correct Answer: 648

Solution and Explanation

When only \(𝑆_2\) is emitting sound and it is at \(𝑄\), the frequency of sound measured by the detector in Hz is \(\underline{648.00}.\)

Explanation: 

The Doppler effect formula for sound when the source is moving towards the observer is given by:
\(f'=f\times\frac{v+v_0}{v+v_s}\)​​
Where:

  • \('f\)β€² is the observed frequency,
  • \(f\) is the emitted frequency,
  • \(v\) is the speed of sound in the medium (given as 324 msβˆ’1),
  • \(v_o\)​ is the speed of the observer (in this case, at point 𝑃),
  • \(v_s\)​ is the speed of the source.

Initially, only 𝑆2 emits sound at 𝑄. To calculate the frequency observed at 𝑃, let's determine the relative speed of 𝑆2 towards the detector at 𝑃.
The observer's speed \((v_o​)\) is 0 since the detector is stationary at 𝑃.
Now, the speed of 𝑆2 concerning the detector at 𝑃 will be the component of the speed of 𝑆2 perpendicular to the line 𝑄𝑃.
Given that 𝑆2 moves at a uniform speed of 4\(\sqrt{2}\) \(ms^{βˆ’1}\) on a circular path around 𝑂, and 𝑄 is equidistant from 𝑃 and 𝑅, which are diametrically opposite, the speed of 𝑆2 towards the detector at 𝑃 is 4\(\sqrt{2}\)​ \(ms^{βˆ’1}\)
Now, let's use the Doppler effect formula:
\(f'=f\times\frac{v+v_0}{v+v_s}\)

Given that \(f\)\(656\) Hz, \(v\) = \(324 \;ms^{βˆ’1}\)\(v_o\)​=\(0\) \(ms^{βˆ’1}\) and \(v_s\)​ = 4\(\sqrt{2}\) msβˆ’1, let's calculate the observed frequency at \(𝑃\) when only \(𝑆_2\)emits sound

at \(𝑄\).\(f'=656\times\frac{324+0}{324+4\sqrt{2}}\)

\(f'=656\times\frac{324}{324+4\sqrt{2}}\)

\(f' = 648.00\)

Correct Answer: 8.2

Solution and Explanation

𝑆1 and 𝑆2 are two identical sound sources of frequency 656 Hz
f0 = 656 Hz 
v = 324 m/s Frequency heard due to movement of (S1)
\(f_1=(\frac{v}{v-u_s})f_0\)

\(f_1=\frac{324}{3520}\times656\)

And frequency heard due to movement of (S2
f2 = 656 Hz   
∴ Beat frequency \(Ξ” f = f_1 – f_2 \)
\(=656(\frac{324}{320}-1)\)

\(Ξ” f = 8.2\)
