A source emits sound of frequency \(f_s = 500\ \text{Hz}\) in air where the speed of sound is \(v = 340\ \text{m s}^{-1}\). The source moves directly towards a stationary observer with a speed of \(20\ \text{m s}^{-1}\). At the same time, a second identical source, fixed at a point 30 m from the observer, emits the same frequency \(500\ \text{Hz}\). The observer hears the superposition of the two sounds. Calculate the beat frequency heard by the observer. Give your answer in hertz to one decimal place.
