A train whistling at constant frequency is moving towards a station at a constant speed $v$. The train goes past a stationary observer on the station. The frequency $n$ of the sound as heard by the observer is plotted as a function of time $t$. Identify the expected curve
The amplitude of a wave represented by displacement equation $y = \frac{1}{{\sqrt a }}\,\sin \,\omega t \pm \frac{1}{{\sqrt b }}\,\cos \,\omega t$ will be
The apparent frequency of a sound wave as heard by an observer is $10\%$ more than the actual frequency. If the velocity of sound in air is $330\, m/sec$, then
$(i)$ The source may be moving towards the observer with a velocity of $30\,ms^{-1}$
$(ii)$ The source may be moving towards the observer with a velocity of $33\,ms^{-1}$
$(iii)$ The observer may be moving towards the source with a velocity of $30\,ms^{-1}$
$(iv)$ The observer may be moving towards the source with a velocity of $33\,ms^{-1}$
During propagation of a plane progressive mechanical wave incorrect statement is
The equation of a stationary wave is
