Answer:
The apparent frequency heard by the car driver is 15.11 kHz.
Explanation:
Given,
The velocity of the motorcycle (source) is (v) = 140 km/hr.
The velocity of the car (observer) is (u) = 150 km/hr.
The velocity of the sound in air is (V) = 340 km/hr
The actual frequency of sound emitted (f) = 10 KHz
To find,
The apparent frequency heard by the car driver (f')
Calculation,
We know that:
Where = observer frequency of sound
V = speed of sound waves
= observer velocity
= source velocity
= actual frequency of sound waves
Now by substituting the values:
f' = (1188 + 150)/(1188 + 140) (15 kHz)
f' = 15.11 kHz
Therefore, the apparent frequency heard by the car driver is 15.11 kHz.
