Answer:
2.98 m/s^2
Explanation:
I have done this before and it was a question on my physics test
f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz
f = frequency emitted by the police car = 1200 Hz
V = speed of sound = 340 m/s
v = speed of vehicle = ?
frequency observed by the police car is given as
f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)
inserting the values in the above equation
1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)
v = 6.9 m/s
Downward movement under the force of gravity only.
