Answer:
The speed of the baseball is approximately 19.855 m/s
Explanation:
From the question, we have;
The frequency of the microwave beam emitted by the speed gun, f = 2.41 × 10¹⁰ Hz
The change in the frequency of the returning wave, Δf = +3190 Hz higher
The Doppler shift for the microwave frequency emitted by the speed gun which is then reflected back to the gun by the moving baseball is given by 2 shifts as follows;
Where;
Δf = The change in frequency observed, known as the beat frequency = 3190 Hz
= The speed of the baseball
c = The speed of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s
f = The frequency of the microwave beam = 2.41 × 10¹⁰ Hz
By plugging in the values, we have;
The speed of the baseball, ≈ 19.855 m/s
