To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler Effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other.

Mathematically it can be described as

v' = v (\frac{f' ( v - v_{bat}) - f ( v + v_{bat})}{f'(v-v_{bat}) + f ( v + v_{bat})})

Where,

v = Speed of sound

f' = Reflected frequency

f = Emitted Frequency

v_{bat} = Speed of the object

Assuming that the speed of the medium is the speed of sound of 343m / s, we will then have that:

v' = 343 (\frac{(83.5) (343 -3.9) - 80.2(343+3.9)}{83.5(343-3.9) + 80.2(343+4.3)})

v' = 3.0134m/s

Answer:

Definition. Nuclear physics is the study of the protons and neutrons at the centre of an atom and the interactions that hold them together in a space just a few femtometres (10-15 metres) across. Example nuclear reactions include radioactive decay, fission, the break-up of a nucleus, and fusion, the merging of nuclei.

What is the bouncing of light when it changes media
matrenka [14]

When light passes from one medium to another, part of it continues on
into the new medium, while the rest of it bounces away from the boundary,
back into the first medium.

The part of the light that continues on into the new medium is <em>transmitted</em>
light.  Its forward progress at any point in its journey is <em>transmission</em>. 

Its direction usually changes as it crosses the boundary.  The bending is <em>
refraction</em>
.

The part of the light that bounces away from the boundary and heads back
into the first medium is <em>reflected</em> light.  The process of bouncing is <em>reflection</em>.
