A source of sound producing wavelength 50 cm is moving away from a stationary observer with 
speed of sound. Then what is the wavelength of sound received by the observer?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Here, wavelength of the source, 
= 50 cm
Speed of the sound = v
Speed of the source, 
As the source is moving away from the stationary observer, therefore the wavelength of sound received by the observer is
