Halliday, Resnick & Walker — Waves–II: Problem 66

Two trains are traveling toward each other at \(30.5 \text{ m/s}\) relative to the ground. One train is blowing a whistle at \(500 \text{ Hz}\). (a) What frequency is heard on the other train in still air? (b) What frequency is heard on the other train if the wind is blowing at \(30.5 \text{ m/s}\) toward the whistle and away from the listener? (c) What frequency is heard if the wind direction is reversed?

📝 Solution Approach

Find: (a) What frequency is heard on the other train in still air?; (b) What frequency is heard on the other train if the wind is bl; (c) What frequency is heard if the wind direction is reversed?
