64 A stationary detector measures the frequency of a sound source that first moves at constant velocity directly toward the de- tector and then (after passing the detector) directly away from it. The emitted frequency is f. During the approach the detected fre- quency is f'app and during the recession it is free. If (f'app - free)/f = 0.500, what is the ratio v/v of the speed of the source to the speed of sound?

64 A stationary detector measures the frequency of a sound
source that first moves at constant velocity directly toward the de-
tector and then (after passing the detector) directly away from it.
The emitted frequency is f. During the approach the detected fre-
quency is f'app and during the recession it is free. If (f'app - frec)/f =
0.500, what is the ratio v/v of the speed of the source to the speed
of sound?
