An ambulance is traveling East at 20m/s.
An ambulance is traveling East at 20m/s. The
siren emits a fixed frequency of 420Hz. Each of the following cars is
traveling down the road as described. Rank the cars according to the
frequency the driver will hear. Select 1 for the car which will hear the
highest frequency. Remember that if the frequency is the same, select
the same rank and skip the next number. I really suggest drawing a
picture to help sort this out. Keep in mind the relative speed - How
fast does it seem the ambulance is moving towards or away from each
driver?
