The Doppler effect is the change in frequency of sound waves as a sound source or listener moves relative to each other. When a source is moving towards a listener, the frequency appears higher (shorter wavelength) due to compression of waves. When moving away, the frequency seems lower (longer wavelength) due to stretching of waves.
The Doppler Effect.
No, the wave speed does not change in the Doppler effect. The apparent frequency and wavelength of the wave change due to the motion of the source or observer relative to the wave, but the speed of the wave remains constant.
The change in frequency of a sound due to motion of the source is called the Doppler effect. If the source is moving towards the observer, the frequency of the sound appears higher (blueshifted), while if the source is moving away, the frequency appears lower (redshifted). This effect is commonly experienced with passing vehicles and sirens.
An observable change in sound when the frequency changes is a difference in pitch. As the frequency increases, the pitch becomes higher, and as the frequency decreases, the pitch becomes lower. This change in pitch is due to the direct relationship between frequency and pitch in sound waves.
The change in sound tones as a car moves by is due to the Doppler effect. When the car approaches, the sound waves are compressed, resulting in a higher pitch (frequency); when the car passes and moves away, the sound waves are stretched, resulting in a lower pitch. This effect occurs because the car's motion causes the sound waves to be either compressed or stretched in relation to the observer.

As you move toward the source of a sound wave, the frequency of the sound will appear to increase due to the Doppler effect. Once you pass the source and move away from it, the frequency of the sound will appear to decrease. The change in frequency is a result of the relative motion between you and the sound source.
No, the Doppler effect is not an apparent change in the resonance of sound. It is the shift in frequency of a wave (such as sound or light) due to the motion of the source or observer. This shift in frequency occurs when there is relative motion between the source of the wave and the observer.
frequency and pitch would change as the source moves. As the source moves away, the frequency and pitch decrease, and as the source moves closer, they increase. This is due to the Doppler effect, where the relative motion between the source and observer causes a shift in frequency.
The speed of the wave stays same but the frequency change due to motion.
When the source of a sound is moving, the speed of sound waves emitted from the source is not affected by the motion of the source itself. However, the perceived frequency of the sound may change due to the Doppler effect, if the source is moving towards or away from the listener.
The frequency of a wave can change due to the motion of the source or observer relative to each other, known as the Doppler effect. Additionally, a change in the medium through which the wave is traveling, such as a change in its density or temperature, can also cause the frequency of the wave to change.
