Explanation:

Doppler effect: It is the phenomenon in which there is relative motion between the source and the observer or the source and the listener. There is an apparent change in the frequency.

When the observer and the source are moving towards each other then the frequency increases.

When the observer and the source are moving away from each other then the frequency decreases.

The expression of the speed of the wave in terms of the frequency is as follows;

v=f\lambda

Here, v is the speed of the wave, f is the frequency of the wave and \lambda is the wavelength of the wave.

From the above relation, it can be concluded that speed of the sound is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave.

The magnitude of the Doppler shift increases when the velocity of the sound source is increased.

The Doppler effect happens as the result of a source of waves having relative motion to observers somewhere else consider that if something is producing a wave of wavelength W and it is moving relative to the waves then as the waves spread out it seems to chase one side and run away from the other side there for wavelengths produced on the scale it is chasing will be less than W on the side it is running away from the apparent wavelength will be greater than W so using this knowledge if the source of the Waves moves faster than it will chase one of the more closely and run away from the other more quickly there for making the short wavelength even shorter and the long wavelength even longer can turn you in and tell you have gone all over the speed of wave creating boom when dealing with sound this is what causes a sonic boom this lengthening of the long wavelengths and the shortening of the short wavelengths is referred to as being a greater Doppler shift

A trumpeter is placed on a moving sidewalk that moves at a constant velocity of 4.5 m/s. A listener is standing 6.0 m in front o

You didn't actually include the speed of sound. But it doesn't matter for this question. If the trumpeter and the listener are on the same moving sidewalk then the distance between them is not changing. The Doppler shift only happens when the distance between the source and the Observer is changing. So the Listener hears the same 290 Hertz that the trumpeter is generating.

How much force does it take to stop a 1,000 kg car traveling at 20 m/s in 10 seconds?
Doss [256]
The initial momentum of the car is

                (mass) x (speed)  =  20,000 kg-m/s

"Impulse" is (force exerted) x (time the force lasts)
and it's equal to the change in momentum.

              (Force) x (10 sec)  =  20,000 kg-m/s

Divide each side by  (10 sec)  and you have

                      Force  =  (20,000 kg-m/s) / (10 sec)

                                 =          2,000 kg-m/s²  =  2,000 Newtons
