A siren emitting sound of frequency 500 Hz is going away from a stationary listener with a speed of 50 m/s, the frequency of sound heard directly from the siren is 

  • 286.5 HZ

  • 481 Hz

  • 434.2 Hz

  • 580 Hz

Solution

C.

434.2 Hz

The frequency of siren =500HzThe speed of siren νs =50m/sUsing Doppler's principlen' =νν+νsnn'=330330+50×500n'=330×500380=434.2Hz
