Question

Two vehicles, each moving with speed u on the same horizontal straight road, are approaching each other. Wind blows along the road with velocity w. One of these vehicles blows a whistle of frequency f₁. An observer in the other vehicle hears the frequency of the whistle to be f₂. The speed of sound in still air is V. The correct statement (s) is (are)

If the wind blows from the observer to the source, f₂ > f₁

If the wind blows from observer to the source, f₂ < f₁

If the wind blows from the source to the observer, f₂ < f₁

If the wind blows from the source to the observer, f₂ > f₁
