A source emits a sound of frequency \(f_{1}=800\ \text{Hz}\). An observer moves directly towards this source with speed \(v_{o}=10\ \text{m s}^{-1}\). The speed of sound in air is \(v=340\ \text{m s}^{-1}\). At the same time, a second stationary source located \(30\ \text{m}\) behind the observer emits sound of frequency \(f_{2}=820\ \text{Hz}\). (i) Find the frequencies heard by the observer from each source. (ii) Determine the beat frequency produced by the superposition of the two received sounds.

Answer Options

A. f'1 ≈ 830 Hz, f'2 ≈ 790 Hz, beat frequency ≈ 40 Hz
B. f'1 ≈ 818 Hz, f'2 ≈ 803 Hz, beat frequency ≈ 15 Hz
C. f'1 ≈ 824 Hz, f'2 ≈ 820 Hz, beat frequency ≈ 4 Hz
Correct Answer D. f'1 ≈ 824 Hz, f'2 ≈ 797 Hz, beat frequency ≈ 27 Hz
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
f'1 ≈ 824 Hz, f'2 ≈ 797 Hz, beat frequency ≈ 27 Hz
