Thank you
A source of sound waves of frequency 1.00 kHz is stationary. An observer is traveling at 0.560 times the speed of sound.
a) what is the observed frequency if the observer moves toward the source?
b) what is the observer frequency if the observer moves away from the source?
What frequency is received by the observer "B" moving at 22 km/h away from a firetruck at rest which is emitting a steady 372Hz sound from its siren? The speed of sound on this day is 338 m/s.
Observer frequency =
