Joint Entrance Examination/AIEEE 2009/Q080 DOPPLER EFFECT

From Wikiversity


Welcome to the Highschool Help Forum!

The forum is currently in "Beta" stage of development. You can ask questions and answer/discuss them. The basic functionalities are present. What's required is a more aesthetic look to the Static pages and a more user friendly setup. This will happen over the time gradually as we start creating some content.

The site has a lot of tools, like posting mathematical calculations, images and diagrams; categorizing questions and so on. Having them here is NO GOOD unless you know how to use them. I am thoroughly against compiling a list of these features and then writing about them. As soon as you do not understand how to do something or use a certain feature, report that on "How To"s Section of the forum. Your queries will be answered there.

If you have any ideas/discussion regarding the site/comments, please go to Discussions regarding Highschool Help Forum

Lastly, thanks for joining in the site's development process! It matters!

Original Question by 164.100.170.4

Here's the question...

Q80. A motor cycle starts from rest and accelerates along a straight path at 2 m/s2. At the starting point of the motor cycle there is a stationary electric siren. How far has the motor cycle gone when the driver hears the frequency of the siren at 94% of its value when the motor cycle was at rest ? (Speed of sound = 330 ms–1)

  • (1) 98 m
  • (2) 147 m
  • (3) 196 m
  • (4) 49 m

Additional notes

f′ =f[v –v0]/v speed of sound=v speed of observer=v0 ⇒ 0.94 = 1– v0/v ⇒ v0 = 19.8 m/s ⇒ Distance covered = [v0]2/2a= 98 m
