A plane flies toward a stationary siren at 1/4 the speed of sound. Then the plane stands still on the ground and the siren is driven toward it at 1/4 the speed of sound. In both cases, a person sitting in the plane will hear the same frequency of sound from the siren. A plane flies toward a stationary siren at 1/4 the speed of sound. Then the plane stands still on the ground and the siren is driven toward it at 1/4 the speed of sound. In both cases, a person sitting in the plane will hear the same frequency of sound from the siren. True False

The question above is repeated twice.

Removing the repetition, we have:  A plane flies toward a stationary siren at 1/4 the speed of sound. Then the plane stands still on the ground and the siren is driven toward it at 1/4 the speed of sound. In both cases, a person sitting in the plane will hear the same frequency of sound from the siren. True or False?

The correct answer to the question is "False"

Explanation:

The question above, illustrates a phenomenon referred to as "Doppler effect"

The Doppler effect only changes the frequency of the sound which explains how wavelength changes when a wave source is moving toward or away from an object. The Doppler effect occurs when a source of waves and/or observer move relative to each other.

When a sound source is moving toward the observer (a person sitting in the plane) in the case above,  the observer will hear a higher pitch as the source approaches. That is, the plane stands still on the ground and the siren is driven toward it.This is due to a decrease in the amplitude of the sound wave.

However, If the observer moves toward the stationary source, the observed frequency is higher than the source frequency. In this case, A plane flies toward a stationary siren.

λ = v/f = vT,

where T is the period,

The relationship  between frequency, speed, and wavelength is:

f = v/λ

v represents the speed of sound through the medium.

Doppler effect depends on things moving, as the observer moves, the frequency becomes higher as the distance decreases. If the observer moves and the distance becomes larger, it means that the sound frequency becomes lower.

the answer is b i think
