At rest, a cars horn sounds the note A (440 Hz). The horn is sounded while the car is moving down the street. A bicyclist moving in the same direction with one-third the cars speed hears a frequency of 415 Hz. (a) Is the cyclist ahead of or behind the car? (b) What is the speed of the car?
A sound wave propagates in air at 27C with frequency 4.00 kHz. It passes through a region where the temperature gradually changes and then moves through air at 0C. Give numerical answers to the following questions to the extent possible and state your reasoning about what happens to the wave physically. (a) What happens to the speed of the wave? (b) What happens to its frequency? (c) What happens to its wavelength?
An interstate highway has been built through a neighborhood in a city. In the afternoon, the sound level in an apartment in the neighborhood is 80.0 dB as 100 cars pass outside the window every minute. Late at night, the traffic flow is only five cars per minute. What is the average late-night sound level?
A bullet is fired and moves at a speed of 1342 mph. Assume the speed of sound is v=340.00 m/s. What is the angle of the shock wave produced?

Bats use sound waves to catch insects. Bats can detect frequencies up to 100 kHz. If the sound waves travel through air at a speed of v=343 m/s, what is the wavelength of the sound waves?
An interstate highway has been built through a neighborhood in a city. In the afternoon, the sound level in an apartment in the neighborhood is 80.0 dB as 100 cars pass outside the window every minute. Late at night, the traffic flow is only five cars per minute. What is the average late-night sound level?
Later in this book, you will learn that sound is a wave. The wavelength and frequency f of a wave are related by f = v where v is the speed of the wave. Musicians refer to these different wavelengths or frequencies by their notes (AG). Use the information in the following table to plot the frequency on the vertical axis and 1/ on the horizontal axis. Give a conceptual Interpretation and numerical value of the slope on your graph.
