A railway engine whistling at a constant frequency moves with a constant speed. It goes past a stationary observer standing beside the railway track. The frequency $(n)$ of the sound heard by the observer is plotted against time $(t).$ Which of the following best represents the resulting curve?
A sound absorber attenuates (decreases) the sound level by $20\, dB$. The intensity decreases by a factor of
A train standing at the outer signal of a railway station blows a whistle of frequency $400\, Hz$ in still air. What is the frequency of the whistle for a platform observer when the train recedes from the platform with a speed of $10\, m/s$ ...... $Hz$ . (Speed of sound $= 340\, m/s$)
