Two sound sources emitting sound each of wavelength λ, are fixed at a given distance apart. A listener moves with a velocity vo along the line joining the two sources. The number of beats heard by him per second is

Moderate
Solution

Apparent frequency received from the front source

 n=v+v0V×Vλ vs=0= source stationary  Apparent frequency received from the rear source=VV0V×Vλ=VV0λ Number of beats =nn′′=V+V0λVv0λ=2v0λ
