Solution

The correct option is B 109
Let the speed of sound in air be v i.e vsound=v
Thus the velocity of source vsource=v10
Let ν and ν be the real frequency of the source and apparent frequency heard by the observer respectively.
Using Doppler effect when the source is moving towards the stationary observer :
ν=ν[vsoundvsoundvsource]

ν=ν[vvv10]=109ν νν=109
