Question
A bat flying along in a cave at a velocity of Vbat = 4.52 m/s sends out a sound wave of femitted = 59800 Hz. The sound wave reflects off of a stationary stalactite and the bat hears a different frequency than the one he emitted. Use V sound = 346.4 m/s throughout this
problem.
What frequency strikes the stalactite? fstalactite =
Hz
The stalactite reflects what strikes it (NOT the original pitch). What frequency does the bat then hear coming from the stalactite? fbat
What is the frequency of beats heard by the bat? fbeat
Hz
NOTE: The bat hears two things:
●
Vbat
●
The original frequency emitted.
The "double doppler shifted" note from the stalactite.
=
=
Hz
