A train traveling at 25 m/s is blowing its whistle at 440 Hz as it crosses a level crossing. You are waiting at the crossing and hear the pitch of the whistle change as the train passes you. The sound you hear changes from a frequency of to a frequency of _ _(Take the speed of sound to be 340 m/s.)

a. 410 Hz, 475 Hz
b. 472 Hz, 408 Hz
c. 408 Hz, 472 Hz
d. 475 Hz, 410 Hz

b) 472HZ, 408HZ

Explanation:

To find the frequencies perceived when the bus approaches and the train departs, you use the Doppler's effect formula for both cases:

fo: frequency of the source = 440Hz

vs: speed of sound = 343m/s

vo: speed of the observer = 0m/s (at rest)

v: sped of the train

f: frequency perceived when the train leaves us.

f': frequency when the train is getTing closer.

Thus, by doing f and f' the subjects of the formulas and replacing the values of v, vo, vs and fo you obtain:

hence, the frequencies for before and after tha train has past are

b) 472HZ, 408HZ

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
