frequency heard by the policemen is 100-15=85% of total
let n be the freuency of sound emmited by car horn
we can use ,N=nV/V-v
here N is appherent frequency ,V velocity of sound ,v velocity of car and n frequency of horn
v= 58.2m/s
speed of sound is directly proportional to underoot T
v=k(t^1/2)
v1/v2=(t1/t2)^1/2
T=1092k
