Classical Doppler Effect Problems DE-1 Two trais, A and B, are approaching each other on adjacent tracks as shown to the right. Train A is traveling north at 120.FT/S and train B is traveling south at 180 FT/S. Train A blows its whistle, which has a frequency of 256HZ, continuously. Initially: 180ft/s Find the frequency heard by a passenger on train B as: a) the trains are far apart approaching each other. (You can neglect the distance between the tracks; think of the trains as being on the same track). b) the passenger in train B and the whistle in train A are side by side (passing each other). c) the trains have passed and are far apart receeding from each other. 120ft/s A 口口口

Equations for the graph y1 = sin⁡(πx − 2πt) and y2 = sin((πx/2) + 2πt) Which of the graphs to the left correspond to each of the two initial waves you were given? You may find it helpful to plot these graphs on your own. If you do it by hand, you will gain even more insight. a. The graph that corresponds to y2 is b. The graph that corresponds to the superstition of y1 and y2 is c. The graph that corresponds to y1 is Based on the graph you made for the superposition of y1 and y2, would you consider the superposition to be simple harmonic oscillation? Why or why not. a. Yes. It keeps returning to the equilibrium position. b. No. It is not a simple sine or cosine curve. c. No. Waves and simple harmonic oscillation are two unrelated phenomena. d. Yes. The pattern clearly repeats regularly

Doppler effect question: a police officer is not moving and uses a machine to measure the speed of a car approaching. The machine emits a sound wave with a frequency of 24333 Hz. The sound wave travels towards the car, and is reflected then comes back to the police officer. When it comes back, the machine then mesure the waves at a frequency of 27745 Hz. The sound speed is 334 m/s. In km/h, what is the speed of the car?
