You are moving away from a stationary source of sound and hear a frequency that is 0.5 % lower than the rest frame frequency. Taking the speed of sound in air as 343 m/s, calculate your speed of movement?
In this problem take the speed of sound to be 341 m/s.
How fast, in meters per second, does an observer need to approach a stationary sound source in order to observe a 3.8 % increase in the emitted frequency?
he Doppler weather radar used by the National Weather Service is referred to as Nexrad, which stands for nextgeneration radar. Nexrad commonly operates at a frequency of 2.7 GHz. If a Nexrad wave reflects from an approaching weather system that is moving with a speed of 28 m>s, find the difference in frequency between the outgoing andreturning waves. (Assume the speed of the radar waves is c.)
