Answer:

c) The pitch of the two sirens sounds the same to you

Explanation:

The pitch does not depend on the distance of the object from the observer.

As per the given data

pitch = frequency

Frequency = [tex]f_{0}[/tex] [tex]\frac{V +- V_{0}}{V +- V_{s}}[/tex]

[tex]f^{'}[/tex] = [tex]f_{0}[/tex] [tex]\frac{V }{V - V_{s}}[/tex]

Hence, the pitch of the two sirens remains the same for the observer.
