A motorcyclist is moving 24.5 m/s
away from a stationary siren, and
hears an 894 Hz sound. What is
the frequency of the siren when the
cyclist is stationary?
(Hint: 894 Hz is the Doppler-shifted
frequency)
(Speed of sound = 343 m/s)
(Unit = Hz)
w

Respuesta :

Answer:962 hz

Explanation: got it right on acellus

The frequency of the siren when the cyclist is stationary will be 963 Hz.

What is frequency ?

The frequency of a wave is the number of cycles per second.

FRom the doppler effect,

f =f'[ (V+Vs/V-Vo) ]

Here, doppler shifted frequency f' = 894 Hz, Source is stationary, Vs =0. Velocity of observer Vo = 24.5m/s and velocity of sound wave V = 343m/s

Substitute the value into the expression , we get

f = 894 x [(343/343 - 24.5)}

f = 963 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the siren when the cyclist is stationary is 963 Hz.
