I believe the answer is true.
I hope this helps :)
v = speed of the source of sound or the train towards the listener or switchman = 40 m/s
V = actual speed of sound = 340 m/s
f = actual frequency of sound as emitted from source or the train = 1000 Hz
f' = frequency as observed by the listener or by switchman = ?
Using Doppler's law , frequency observed by a listener from a source moving towards it is given as
f' = V f /(V - v)
inserting the values
f' = 340 x 1000 /(340 - 40)
f' = 340 x 1000/300
The speed of the ball is 101miles/hr.
A mile is a unit of length that is exactly 1,609.344 metres long. Similarly, 5,280 feet or 1,760 yards make up one mile. The mile is an imperial and common US measurement of distance.
We just have to deal with unit conversions.
One mile is 5280 feet, or 1 ft = 0.000189
The speed of the ball in miles per hour is

So, the speed of the ball in miles per hour is 101miles/hr.
