Speed of the sound wave = v

Speed of the source , v_{s}= \frac{v}{6}

\begin{aligned} & \lambda^{\prime}=\frac{\left(v+v_s\right) \lambda}{v}=\frac{\left(v+\frac{v}{6}\right) \lambda}{v}=\frac{7}{6} \cdot \lambda \\ & \lambda^{\prime}=\frac{7}{6} \times 60=7 \times 10 \\ & \lambda^{\prime}=70 \mathrm{~cm} \end{aligned}
