Echo Wave speed
v = f x
If the speed of the wave stays the same what will
happen to the frequency if the wavelength decreases? Fire Siren Formula 1 Source moving towards an observer
Stationary Observer Source Source moving towards an observer Now consider the source is moving. The source emits one wave front and at a time T (the time period) later it emits a second wave front.
Moving Observer Source
How will the wavelength change?
The Doppler Effect
Source moving away from observer
Stationary Observer Source Now consider the source is moving. The source emits one wave front and at a time T (the time period) later it emits a second wave front.
