A cop car’s siren has a frequency of 700. Hz. If you are standing on the sidewalk as the cop car approaches you at a speed of 15.0 m/s, what frequency would you hear? The speed of sound is 343 m/s.

Respuesta :

The frequency of the siren

The frequency observer would hear is 732 Hz.

What is frequency?

Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time.

[tex]f=\frac{1}{T}[/tex]

What is Doppler EFFECT?

The Doppler effect is the change in frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source.

[tex]f_{o} = f_{s} \frac{v-v_{0} }{v-v_{s} }[/tex]

Where

[tex]f_{o}[/tex] = observer frequency of sound

[tex]f_{s}[/tex] = actual frequency of sound wave

[tex]v[/tex] = velocity of sound

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] = velocity of observer

[tex]v_{s}[/tex] = velocity of source

Here,

[tex]f_{s}[/tex] = 700 Hz,

[tex]v[/tex] = 343 m/s,

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] = 0 m/s,

[tex]v_{s}[/tex] = 15 m/s

We have to find [tex]f_{o}[/tex]

On putting values in above formula

[tex]f_{o} = 700\frac{343-0 }{343-15 }[/tex]

[tex]f_{o}[/tex] = 732Hz
