Does the Doppler effect increase the intensity of wave when its source approaches the observer?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the Doppler effect increases the intensity of a wave when its source approaches the observer, we can analyze the relationship between frequency, intensity, and the Doppler effect. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Intensity**: - Intensity (I) of a wave is defined as the power (P) per unit area (A). Mathematically, it can be expressed as: \[ I = \frac{P}{A} ...
