Solution

The statement is True. The Doppler Effect is indeed the change in the observed frequency of a wave due to the motion of the source or the observer moving towards or away from each other. This effect is commonly observed in sound waves, such as the change in pitch of a passing siren, but it also applies to light waves.

Describe the Doppler Effect.

When a source of sound and an observe are in relative motion, the pitch of sound heard by the observer is different from the original pitch delivered by the source. This phenomenon is called Doppler effect.If source of sound is stationery and observer is moving towards the source with a velocity  v0 then the apparent frequency heard by the observer is given by  v′  =  (c + v0c)v, where  v is the original frequency of source. Similarly, if observer is at rest and source is moving towards the observer with a velocity  vs the apparent frequency heard by the observer is given by  v′  =  (cc − vs)vIf the direction of motion of observer or source is changed, the sign of velocity changes (i.e., ‘+ve’ sign changes into ‘-ve’ sign and vice-versa). (Where C = speed of sound in air = 340 m/s)An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound producing a pitch of 600 Hz with a velocity 60 ms-1. What is the apparent frequency heard by the observer if velocity of sound is 340 ms–1?

With reference to the Doppler Effect, write down an expression that relates thesound frequency fo heard by a stationary observer, when a sound source movingtowards the observer at speed vs emits a frequency fs. Also write down an expressionfor the sound frequency fo heard by an observer that is moving towards a stationarysound source at a speed vo

Fill in the blanks. Choose from the following words, some may be used more than once, others not at all: Doppler, shift, higher, frequency, lower, relative, absolute, reflections, refractions, blood, water, ultrasound, infrasound, movement If a sound source is moving relative to an observer, the sound appears to undergo a change in . If the source is approaching an observer then they will perceive the sound to have a frequency than when it was emitted at the source. The opposite is also true, with a sound from a receding source perceived to be in frequency. This phenomenon of apparent change is called the effect. The change in frequency itself is called the Doppler . The magnitude of the Doppler shift depends on the speed of the source towards or away from the observer. The Doppler effect also applies to of sound off a moving interface. The Doppler effect can be used with to detect and measure the of anatomical structures within the body. For example, the rate of flow through arteries and veins, or through the heart can be measured. The ultrasound beam is reflected off cellular components in the blood, and the observed shift is used to determine the rate of blood flow along the line of sight.
