A train blowing its whistle moves with a constant velocity u away from the observer on the ground. The ratio of the actual frequency of the whistle to that measured by the observer is found to be 1.2 . If the train is at rest and the observer moves away from it at the same velocity, the ratio would be given by
- 0.51
- 1.25
- 1.52
- 2.05
Answer
