(II) In one of the original Doppler experiments, a tuba was played at a frequency of 75 Hz on a moving flat train car, and a second identical tuba played the same tone while at rest in the railway station. What beat frequency was heard in the station if the train car approached the station at aspeed of 14.0 m/s ?

Does a sound wave move faster in seawater or fresh water, if both the sea water and fresh water are at the same temperature and the sound wave moves near the surface? (w1000kgm3,s1030kgm3,Bw=2.15109Pa,Bs=2.34109Pa)
A cable with a linear density of =0.2 kg/m is hung from telephone poles. The tension in the cable is 500.00 N. The distance between poles is 20 meters. The wind blows across the line, causing the cable resonate. A standing waves pattern is produced that has 4.5 wavelengths between the two poles. The air temperature is T=20C . What are the frequency and wavelength of the hum?

The speed of sound in most solids is somewhat greater than in air, yet the density of solids is much greater (103 to 104 times). Explain
In one of the original Doppler experiments, a tuba was played at a frequency of 69.0 Hz on a moving flat train car, and a second identical tuba played the same tone while at rest in the railway station. What beat frequency was heard in the station if the train car approached the station at a speed of 20.0 m/s?
