An ambulance is traveling east at 61.9 m/s. Behind it there is a car traveling along the same direction at 28.5 m/s. The ambulance driver hears his siren at a frequency of 694 Hz. 28.5 m/s Car 61.9 m/s Ambulance What is the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car? The velocity of sound in air is 343 m/s . Answer in units of m.

0.4 m

Explanation:

Given

Speed of ambulance, vs = 61.9 m/s

Speed of car = 28.5 m/s

Frequency of ambulance siren, f = 694 Hz

Velocity of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

With speed of ambulance being (61.9 m/s) -> We solve using

fd = f(v + vr) / (v - vs), where vr = 0

fd = 694 * (343 + 0) / (343 - 61.9)

fd = 694 * (343 / 281.1)

fd = 694 * 1.22

fd = 847 Hz

Recall,

λ = v/f

λ = 343/847

λ = 0.4 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car is 0.4 m
