Afire engine is moving south at 35 m/s while blowing its siren at a frequency of 400 hz.
what pitch will the passengers in a car that has already passed the fire engine hear if the car is traveling north at 18 m/s?
use 343 m/s for the speed of sound.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as

Here,

=frequency received by detector

=frequency of wave emitted by source

=velocity of detector

=velocity of source

v=velocity of sound wave

Replacing we have that,

Therefore the frequencty that will hear the passengers is 422Hz

the answer would be c. motion and direction

i hope this : )

that tool is called an altimeter which measures your altitude which can be used to tell which atmosphere you are currently in, including the stratosphere.

hope this ! : )
