A whistle producing sound waves of frequencies 9500 Hz and above is approaching a stationary person with speed v ms-1. The velocity of sound in air is 300 ms-1. If the person can hear frequencies upto a maximum of 10,000 Hz, the maximum value of v upto which he can hear the whistle is ?

Hello student,
By substituting the given data in the equation we get
fapp=f(300)/(300-v)
So v=15 m/s
Thanks and Regards
