Doppler Effect
You are waiting at a train station when an approaching express train sounds its 400 Hz horn, warning everyone to stand back from the platform as it passes. If you perceive the frequency of the horn to be 425 Hz as the train approaches, how fast must the train be moving towards you? You may assume the speed of sound is 343 m/s.

As you stand near a railroad track, a train passes by at a speed of 30.1 m/s while sounding its horn at a frequency of 218 Hz. What frequency do you hear as the train approaches you and what frequency while it recedes? Take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s. approaching: Hz receding:
A pedestrian waiting for the light to change at an intersection hears a car approaching with its horn blaring. The car's horn produces sound with a frequency of 381 Hz, but the pedestrian hears a frequency of 386 Hz . How fast is the car moving?
A train is moving pass a crossing where cars are waiting for it to pass. While waiting, the driver of the lead car becomes sleepy and rests his head on the steering wheel, unintentionally activating the car's horn. A passenger in the back of the train hears the horn's sound at a frequency of 444 Hz and a passenger in the front hears it at 415 Hz. Find the train's speed and the horn's frequency, assuming the sound travels along...
A train is moving past a crossing where cars are waiting for it to pass. While waiting, the driver of the lead car becomes sleepy and rests his head on the steering wheel, unintentionally activating the car's horn. A passenger in the back of the train hears the horn's sound at a frequency of 440 Hz and a passenger in the front hears it at 415 Hz. Find the train's speed and the horn's frequency, assuming the sound travels along...
A car is parked 20.0 m directly south of a railroad crossing. A train is approaching the crossing from the west, headed directly east at a speed of 55.5 m/s. The train sounds a short blast of its 312-Hz horn when it reaches a point 20.0 m west of the crossing. What frequency does the car's driver hear when the horn blast reaches the car? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. (Hint: Assume that only the component...
4. In one of the original Doppler experiments, a tuba was played on a train at a speed of 60 km/h, at a constant frequency of 75 Hz, while a second identical tuba played the same note on the platiorm at the railway station. Assume the observer is standing still on the platiorm on a day when the outside air temperature is 20° C a. What is the effect that is observed regardless of any sound from the tuba at...
A train: A enters a train station with constant speed of .00 m/s while another train B leaves the train station with constant speed of 4.00 m/s. At a moment they are both at the same distance of 1 km from the train station they whistle two identical sounds of 400. Hz with acoustic power of 70.0 W each. A passenger standing on the station platform. No wind is blowing. (a) What is the frequency of the sound from A...
As you stand near a railroad track, a train passes by at a speed of 34.1 m/s while sounding its horn at a frequency of 216 Hz. What frequency do you hear as the train approaches you and what frequency while it recedes? Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s. approaching_____Hz receding______Hz
You are driving a massive truck and become stuck at a railway crossing. Your truck completely blocks the railway tracks, which extend in a straight line in both directions. You hear a train approaching when it toots its horn. (a) Let /1 be the intensity of the sound you hear from the horn initially, and 12-70 dB the sound when the train is at half the original distance. ) Calculate the intensity of the horn, 11, in dB. i) Calculate...
A TRAIN SOUNDS ITS WHISTLE AS IT APPROACHES AND LEAVES A RAILROAD CROSSING. AN OBSERVER AT THE CROSSING MEASURES A FREQUENCY OF 219 HZ AS THE TRAIN APPROACHES AND A FREQUENCY OF 184 HZ AS THE TRAIN LEAVES. THE SPEED OF SOUND IS 340 M/S. FIND THE SPEED OF THE TRAIN AND THE FREQUENCY OF ITS WHISTLE. . Please provide work shown and show what each variable represents thank you so much.
