Question

The car approaches Mr. Ronaldo in a straight line with a speed of 50 m/s, emitting sound waves with a frequency of 1,000 hertz. (Set the speed of sound to be 350 meters per second.) a.) If Mr. Ronaldo stands still, what frequency will Mr. A hear from the car? b.) As the car passes by, what frequency will Mr. Ronaldo hear?

A driver travels northbound on a highway at a speed of 25.0 m/s. A police car, traveling southbound at a speed of 40.0 m/s, approaches with its siren producing sound at a frequency of 2500 Hz. (a) What frequency does the driver observe as the police car approaches? (b) What frequency does the driver detect after the police car passes him? (c) Repeat parts (a) and (b) for the case when the police car is traveling northbound.

A driver travels northbound on a highway at a speed of $25.0 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} .$ A police car, traveling southbound at a speed of $40.0 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s},$ approaches with its siren producing sound at a frequency of 2500 Hz. (a) What frequency does the driver observe as the police car approaches? (b) What frequency does the driver detect after the police car passes him? (c) Repeat parts (a) and (b) for the case when the police car is behind the driver and travels northbound.

00:01 Here we have the speed of the sound in air equals to 345 meter per second.
00:14 Now the source frequency, that is f0 is equals to 2 ,500 hertz, which is the frequency of the siren produced by the police car.
00:28 Now here the police car is the source and the driver, acts as the observer.
00:50 The velocity of the police car, vp, is equal to 40 meter per second, approaching the driver, whereas the velocity of the driver is 25 meter per second, going away from the police car.
01:07 From doppler effect of sound, we know that observed frequency f -dash is equal to f -0 times v -plus -miners -v -v -ox -miners.
01:23 Divided by v plus minus v source...
