Concept explainers

Properties of sound
A sound wave is a mechanical wave (or mechanical vibration) that transit through media such as gas (air), liquid (water), and solid (wood).
Quality Of Sound
A sound or a sound wave is defined as the energy produced due to the vibrations of particles in a medium. When any medium produces a disturbance or vibrations, it causes a movement in the air particles which produces sound waves. Molecules in the air vib…
Categories of Sound Wave
People perceive sound in different ways, like a medico student takes sound as vibration produced by objects reaching the human eardrum. A physicist perceives sound as vibration produced by an object, which produces disturbances in nearby air molecules th…
Question

a listener in an automobile is moving at 60 m/s toward a fire truck that's moving toward the listener and emitting 2200 Hz sound. the listener hears 2850 Hz. what's the speed of the fire truck in m/s?

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1: To determine the speed of fire truck

Given:

The speed of a listener in an automobile moving toward a fire truck is vo = 60 m/s 

The observed frequency by the listener is f' = 2850 Hz

The source frequency as emitted by truck is f = 2200 Hz
