Answer

$$589 \mathrm{\ Hz} $$

Work Step by Step

We once more pick a frame of reference where air looks to be still. Now, velocity of source is $30.5-30.5=0$ , and that of the detector is 2$(30.5)$ . As a result, $$ f^{\prime}=(500 \mathrm{Hz})\left(\frac{343 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}+2(30.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s})}{343 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}-0}\right)=589 \mathrm{\ Hz} $$
