Chapter 16, Problem Q16.22DQ
In case 1, a source of sound approaches a stationary observer at speed u. In case 2, the observer moves toward the stationary source at the same speed u. If the source is always producing the same frequency sound, will the observer hear the same frequency in both cases, since the relative speed is the same each time? Why or why not?

In case 1, a source of sound approaches a stationary observer at speed u. In case 2, the observer moves toward the stationary source at the same speed u. If the source is always producing the same frequency sound, will the observer hear the same frequency in both cases, since the relative speed is the same each time? Why or why not?
You are moving away from a stationary source of sound and hear a frequency that is 0.5 % lower than the rest frame frequency. Taking the speed of sound in air as 343 m/s, calculate your speed of movement?
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?

- Doppler Effect for a Stationary Observer. The siren of an ambulance at rest has a frequency of about 810 Hz. But when the ambulance is approaching an observer, the observer hears a frequency higher than 810 Hz. And when the ambulance is receding from an observer, the observer hears a frequency lower than 810 Hz. (An observer, then, hears the pitch of the siren suddenly drop as it passes him.) Suppose the speed of the ambulance is 31_m/s. Then find the frequency the observer hears as the ambulance is approaching him. (Assume the speed of sound is 343 m/s.)

(Speed of sound is 0.34 km s-1.)arrow_forwardThe Doppler effect is a change in the observed frequency of a wave (such as a sound wave or light wave) when the source of the wave and observer are in motion relative to each other. The Doppler effect explains why an observer hears a change in pitch of an ambulance siren as the ambulance passes by the observer. The frequency F(v) of a sound relative to So an observer is given by F(v) = fa So where fa is the actual frequency of the sound at the source, so is the speed of sound in air (772.4 mph), and v is the speed at which the source of sound is moving toward the observer. Use this relationship for Exercise. Suppose the frequency of sound emitted by a police car siren is 600 Hz. a. Write F as a function of v if the police car is moving toward an observer. b.
