A source of sound is moving away from a stationary observer with constant velocity 40 m/s. Find frequency heard by observer, if original frequency of source is 400 Hz and speed of sound in air is 360 m/s
330 Hz
320 Hz
360 Hz
280 Hz
The correct answer is option (C) : 360 Hz
\(f=400(\frac{360}{360+40})=360Hz\)
A body of mass 1000 kg is moving horizontally with a velocity of 6 m/s. If 200 kg extra mass is added, the final velocity (in m/s) is:
The Doppler effect is a phenomenon caused by a moving wave source that causes an apparent upward shift in frequency for observers who are approaching the source and a visible downward change in frequency for observers who are retreating from the source. It's crucial to note that the impact isn't caused by a change in the source's frequency.
The Doppler effect may be seen in any wave type, including water waves, sound waves, and light waves. We are most familiar with the Doppler effect because of our encounters with sound waves
