The Doppler equation presented in the text is valid when the motion between the observer and the source occurs on a straight line so that the source and observer are moving either directly toward or directly away from each other. If this restriction is relaxed, one must use the more general Doppler equation f=(v+vocosovvscoss)f where o and s are defined in figure P13.7la. Use the preceding equation to solve the following problem. A train moves at a constant speed of v = 25.0 m/s toward the intersection shown in Figure P13.71b. A car is stopped near the crossing, 30.0 m from the tracks. The trains horn emits a frequency of 500 Hz when the train is 40.0 m from the intersection. (a) What is the frequency heard by the passengers in the car? (b) If the train emits this sound continuously and the car is stationary at this position long before the train arrives until long after it leaves, what range of frequencies do passengers in the car hear? (c) Suppose the car is foolishly trying to beat the train to the intersection and is traveling at 40.0 m/s toward the tracks. When the car is 30.0 m from the tracks and the train is 40.0 m from the intersection, what is the frequency heard by the passengers in the car now?
A physicist drives through a stop light. When he is pulled over, he tells the police officer that the Doppler shift made the red light of wavelength 650 nm appear green to him, with a wavelength of 520 nm. The police officer writes out a traffic citation for speeding. How fast was the physicist traveling, according to his own testimony?
In which of the following situations is the Doppler effect absent?a. The source and the observer are moving towards each other.b. The observer is moving toward the source.c. The source is moving away from the observer.d. Neither the source nor the observer is moving relative to one another.
An ambulance passes by a stationary observer releasing its siren at a frequency of 479Hz. The difference between the frequency observed by the observer as the car was approaching and with when the ambulance was moving away was 62Hz. How fast is the ambulance moving? Assume the speed of sound is 339m/s
The temperature is 220 C and a car is honking its horn at a frequency of 450 Hz. You perceive a frequency of 500 Hz. Is the car moving towards you or away? How fast is the car traveling relative to you?
Because of the Doppler effect, the sound heard by an observer listening to a moving ambulance siren, compared to what the observer would have heard if the observer and siren were both at rest... will have a lower pitch if the ambulance siren is moving towards the observer. will have a longer wavelength if the ambulance siren is moving towards the observer. will have a lower frequency if the ambulance siren is moving towards the observer will have a higher frequency if the ambulance siren is moving away from the observer. will have a higher frequency if the ambulance siren is moving towards the observer.
A spaceship is approaching a space station at a speed of 1.60 ✕ 105 m/s. The space station has a beacon that emits green light with a frequency of 5.94 ✕ 1014 Hz. (a) What is the frequency of the beacon observed on the spaceship? (Use c = 2.9979 ✕ 108 m/s for the speed of light. Enter your answer to at least five significant figures.)Hz(b) What is the change in frequency?Hz
The Cubs are putting on a fireworks show at Wrigley Field after the game on a brisk autumn evening when the temperature is 12 °C (54 °F). After the flash of an explosion, it takes spectators 0.600 s to hear the bang. How far away was the explosion? The speed of sound at 21 °C is 344 m/s.

A spaceship is approaching a space station at a speed of 3.30 ✕ 105 m/s. The space station has a beacon that emits green light with a frequency of 5.85 ✕ 1014 Hz. (a) What is the frequency of the beacon observed on the spaceship? (Use c = 2.9979 ✕ 108 m/s for the speed of light. Enter your answer to at least five significant figures.)

How fast would you need to be driving towards a red light for it to appear green to you due to the doppler shift? Recall red light has a frequency of 4.6x1014 Hz and green light has a frequency of 5.5x1014 Hz.
