To solve the problem, we will use the Doppler effect equations for sound waves. The steps are as follows: ### Step 1: Write down the Doppler Effect formulas For a source approaching a stationary observer, the apparent frequency \( f' \) is given by: \[ f' = \frac{v}{v - v_s} \cdot f \] For a source receding from a stationary observer, the apparent frequency \( f'' \) is given by: ...
