Physics Question on Sound Wave

S1S_1 and S2S_2 are two identical sound sources of frequency 656656 HzHz. The source S1S_1 is located at 𝑂𝑂 and 𝑆2𝑆_2 moves anti-clockwise with a uniform speed 424\sqrt2 ms1m s ^{−1} on a circular path around 𝑂𝑂, as shown in the figure. There are three points 𝑃𝑃, 𝑄𝑄 and 𝑅𝑅 on this path such that 𝑃𝑃 and 𝑅𝑅 are diametrically opposite while 𝑄𝑄 is equidistant from them. A sound detector is placed at point 𝑃𝑃. The source 𝑆1𝑆_1 can move along direction 𝑂𝑃𝑂𝑃. [Given: The speed of sound in air is 324324 ms1m s ^{−1} ]
𝑆1 and 𝑆2 are two identical sound sources of frequency 656 Hz
