A person riding on a bus hears the sound from a horn on a car that is stopped.What is different about the sound when the bus is approaching the car compared to when the bus is moving away from the car?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1- Observed frequency increases when moving towards the car

2-Observed frequency decreases when moving away from the car

Explanation:

When bus moving towards the car;

Let,

f= frequency observed by the person

c= propagation speed of waves in air

Vr= velocity of person

[tex]f_0{}[/tex]= frequency of emission of waves by the car

The transmission velocity of waves will change;

[tex]f=(\frac{c+Vr}{c})} f_0{}[/tex]

i-e observed frequency increases

When bus moving away from the car;

The transmission velocity of waves will change as;

[tex]f=(\frac{c-Vr}{c})f_0{}[/tex]

i-e observed frequency decreases
