Answer:
Speed of physicist car is 0.036c or 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s .
Explanation:
Doppler Effect is defined as the change in frequency or wavelength of the wave as the source or/and observer moving away or towards each other.
In this case, the Doppler effect equation in terms of wavelength is :
......(1)
Here
is source wavelength,
is observed wavelength, v is speed of the observer and c is the speed of light.
Given :
Source wavelength,
= 660 nm = 660 x 10⁻⁹ m
Observed wavelength,
= 555 nm = 555 x 10⁻⁹ m
Substitute these values in the equation (1).






v = 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s
Math is the process of using the given information, along with
all the general stuff that you know, to find the missing information.
With no given information, we have no way to even guess at
an answer.
