JEE Advanced 2023 — Paper 2 — Question 39
and are two identical sound sources of frequency 656 Hz . The source is located at and moves anticlockwise with a uniform speed on a circular path around O , as shown in the figure. There are three points and R on this path such that P and R are diametrically opposite while Q is equidistant from them. A sound detector is placed at point . The source can move along direction OP. [Given: The speed of sound in air is ]
When only is emitting sound and it is at Q , the frequency of sound measured by the detector in Hz is —.
