Question 1

[Maximum number: 2]

Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven in phase and with the same amplitude at a frequency of 850 Hz . Point P is located 22.5 m from A and 24.3 m from B. The speed of sound is 340 ms1340 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}.

Figure for Question 1 — IB Physics HL

In another experiment, loudspeaker A is stationary and emits sound with a frequency of 850 Hz . The microphone is moving directly away from the loudspeaker with a constant speed v. The frequency of sound recorded by the microphone is 845 Hz .

Calculate v.
