Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed and the man behind walks at a speed A third man in standing at a height above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency . The speed of sound in air is At the instant, when the moving men are apart, the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in heard by the stationary man at this instant, is .
