To solve the problem of finding the frequency heard by a listener when a police siren is moving away, we will use the Doppler effect formula. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Doppler Effect Formula The Doppler effect formula for sound is given by: \[ f' = f \left( \frac{v + v_o}{v - v_s} \right) \] ...
