A waterproof electric buzzer has a membrane that vibrates at a constant frequency of 440 hertz. The buzzer is placed in a bucket of water. Knowing that the speed of sound is much greater in water than in air, will the frequency of the sound heard in the air be greater than, equal to, or less than 440 hertz? Will the wavelength of the sound in air be greater than, equal to, or less than what it was in the water? Explain. (Hint: Review Question 39 and think of the travelers as the wave crests.)
Reference of question 39
Travelers spaced 10 feet apart are all walking at 3 mph relative to a moving sidewalk. When the moving sidewalk ends, they continue to walk at 3 mph. An observer standing next to the moving sidewalk notes that the travelers are passing by at a frequency of 1 hertz. A second observer stands just beyond the end of the moving sidewalk and notes the frequency at which the travelers pass.
Would this frequency be greater than, equal to, or less than 1 hertz? Is the spacing between the travelers after leaving the moving sidewalk greater than, equal to, or less than 10 feet? Explain.
