Krishna and Seldon now try a homework problem. A policeman sitting in his unmarked police car sees an approaching motorcyclist go through a red light two blocks away. He turns on his siren at a frequency of 1000 Hz as the motorcyclist heads directly toward him at 61 mph (27.27 m/s). What frequency does the motorcyclist hear? (Enter your answer to at least the nearest integer. Assume the speed of sound in air is 331 m/s.) Hz What frequency does the motorcyclist hear when stopped with the police car approaching at 61 mph (27.27 m/s)? (Enter your answer to at least the nearest integer. Assume the speed of sound in air is 331 m/s.) Hz

Explanation:

We shall apply formula of Doppler's effect

Here source is fixed and observer is approaching the source

f = f₀ x [(V + v ) / V ]

f₀ is original and f is apparent frequency , V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of motorcyclist .

f = 1000 x [(331 + 27.27 ) / 331 ]

= 1082 .4 Hz

This is the frequency heard by motorcyclist .

When police car is approaching him when he is stopped

f = f₀ x [V /(V - v ) ]

v is velocity of police car .

= 1000  x 331 / (331 - 27.27)

= 1090 Hz  

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!

no

explanation:

no i dont know how to solve this you should probably try to google the answer
