Waves

A source emitting sound is tied to one end of a string of length 50 cm and is rotated with an angular speed of $40 \mathrm{rad} \mathrm{s}^{-1}$ in the horizontal plane. The ratio of the maximum and minimum frequencies of the sound heard by an observer standing at a distance of 10 m from the fixed end of the string is

(speed of sound in air $=340 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ )
