A source of sound S emitting waves of frequency $\displaystyle 100$ Hz and an observer O are located at some distance from each other. The source is moving with a speed of $\displaystyle 19.4 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ at an angle of $\displaystyle 60$° with the source observer line as shown in the figure. The observer is at rest. The apparent frequency observed by the observer (velocity of sound in air $\displaystyle 330 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$), is :
