Your clock radio awakens you with a steady and irritating sound of frequency 600 Hz. On morning, it malfunction and cannot be turned off. In frustration, you drop the clock radio out of your fourth-story dorm wndow 15.0m from the ground. Assume the speed of sound is 343 m/s. As you listen to the falling clock radio, what frequency do you hear just before you hear it striking the ground?

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Frequency of the clock radio (source frequency, \( f \)) = 600 Hz - Height from which the clock radio is dropped (distance, \( s \)) = 15.0 m - Acceleration due to gravity (\( g \)) = 10 m/s² (approximately) - Speed of sound in air (\( v \)) = 343 m/s ...
