Singing that is off-pitch by more than about 1% sounds bad. How fast would a singer have to be moving relative to the rest of a band to make this much of a change in pitch due to the Doppler effect

Respuesta :

Answer:

-3.396 m/s or 3.465 m/s

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

[tex]v_s[/tex] = Relative speed of the singer

f = Observed frequency

f' = Actual frequency

1% change can mean [tex]f=1.01f'[/tex]

From the Doppler effect equation we have

[tex]f=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 1.01f'=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 1.01=\dfrac{343}{343+v_s}\\\Rightarrow v_s=\dfrac{343}{1.01}-343\\\Rightarrow v_s=-3.396\ m/s[/tex]

The velocity is -3.396 m/s

when [tex]f=0.99f'[/tex]

[tex]f=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 0.99f'=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 0.99=\dfrac{343}{343+v_s}\\\Rightarrow v_s=\dfrac{343}{0.99}-343\\\Rightarrow v_s=3.46464646465\ m/s[/tex]

The velocity is 3.465 m/s
