A fire engine is travelling at 50 m/s in still air in response to an emergency call. The frequency of the siren on the fire engine is 800HZ.
The velocity of sound in still air is 330m/s.
What is the wavelength of the sound waves:
a)when is directly in front of the fire engine?
b) Directly behind the fire engine?
What is the frequency of the sound heard by a stationary observer:
c)directly in front of the fire engine
d)directly behind the fire engine

The siren of a fire engine that is driving northward at 32.0 m/s emits a sound of frequency 2120 Hz . A truck in front of this fire engine is moving northward at 20.0 m/s .What wavelength would this driver measure for these reflected sound waves?
The siren of a fire engine that is driving northward at 30.0 m/s emits a sound of frequency 2020 Hz. A truck in front of this fire engine is moving northward at 17.0 m/s. What is the frequency of the siren's sound that the fire engine's driver hears reflected from the back of the truck? What wavelength would this driver measure for these reflected sound waves?
Solve the following Doppler Shift problems. Show your work. 1. A concert goer hurries down the aisle to her seat at a speed of 3 m/s. What frequency does she hear when the note A (440 Hz) is played by an instrument of stage if the speed of sound in the concert hall is 343 m/s? 2. A fire engine with a 600 Hz siren approaches then passes a stationary observer. If the engine is traveling at 20 m/s on...

Tutorial Sound Waves . A sound source which produces sound of frequency 300 Hz moves along a straight line and passes by a stationary observer. The observer notices that the frequency of sound heard change Speed of sound in air 330 m s-1] 0when the sound is moving away from him. Determine the speed of the sound source. its siren emitting a sound of frequency 600.0 Hz moves with a speed of me that the speed of sound is 345...
1.An ambulance is traveling east at 54.5 m/s. Behind it a car travels along the same direction at 32.3 m/s. The ambulance driver hears his siren with a wavelength of 0.41 m What wavelength would a stationary observer behind the ambulance measure for the sound? The velocity of sound in air is 343 m/s. Answer in units of m 2. What wavelength would be measured on the car’s hood? Answer in units of m.
The siren of a fire engine that is driving northward at 30.0m/s emits a sound of frequency 2000Hz . A truck in front of this fire engine is moving northward at 21.0m/s .
You are driving down the highway at 14.9 m/s when you approach an automobile accident on the side of the road. To keep traffic away from it, a stationary police car has its siren going; to the police, the siren has a frequency of 1100 Hz. If the speed of sound in air is 332 m/s, what frequency (in Hz) will be heard by you in your car? If the relative motion in the previous question was reversed (i.e. if...
A truck moving at 45 m/s passes a police car moving at 36 m/s in the opposite direction. if the frequency of the siren is 500 Hz relative to the police car, what is the frequency heard by an observer in the truck after the police car passes the truck? (The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.)
A train travelling at 43.4 m/s is approaching a stationary observer, and sounding a warning horn at 448 Hz. If the speed of sound is 340.7 m/s, calculate the frequency which the observer hears, in Hz to 3 sf.
