Concept explainers

Electromagnetic Waves

Electromagnetic waves are waves that consist of magnetic field and electric field components perpendicular to each other. These field components are also perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

Question

A stationary motion detector sends 0. 180 MHz directed to an approaching vehicle at a speed of 43.0 m/s. Find the frequency of the waves reflected to the detector. Speed of sound is 343 m/s.
