9. An ambulance is driving away from you in an area with a speed limit of 50 km/h. You
measure the frequency of one of its siren tones to be 737 Hz, when you know the actual
frequency of the tone to be 770 Hz. The temperature outside is 13°C. Use the formula
below to approximate the speed of sound in that temperature, then determine if the
ambulance was speeding. Show all your work, including your rearranging of the Doppler
equation.
