59 A girl is sitting near the open window of a train that is moving at a velocity of 10.00 m/s to the east. The girlβs uncle stands near the tracks and watches the train move away. The locomotive whistle emits sound at frequency 520.0 Hz. The air is still. (a) What frequency does the uncle hear? (b) What frequency does the girl hear? A wind begins to blow from the east at 10.00 m/s. (c) What frequency does the uncle now hear? (d) What frequency does the girl now hear?
π Solution Approach
Given: 59 A, 10.00 m
Find: (a) What frequency does the uncle hear?; (b) What frequency does the girl hear? A wind begins to blow fro; (c) What frequency does the uncle now hear?
