Question
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).
Options
A.49 m
B.98 m
C.147 m
D.196 m
Solution
Motor cycle, u = 0, a = 2 m/s2
