Complete question:
while hunting in a cave a bat emits sounds wave of frequency 39 kilo hartz were moving towards a wall with a constant velocity of 8.32 meters per second take the speed of sound as 340 meters per second. calculate the frequency reflected off the wall to the bat?
Answer:
The frequency reflected by the stationary wall to the bat is 41 kHz
Explanation:
Given;
frequency emitted by the bat, = 39 kHz
velocity of the bat, = 8.32 m/s
speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s
The apparent frequency of sound striking the wall is calculated as;
The frequency reflected by the stationary wall to the bat is calculated as;
