A bumblebee buzzes past you at 3 m/s. The frequency of the hum made by its wings is 152 Hz. Assume the speed of sound to be 342 m/s. What is the observed frequency of the hum as the bumblebee approaches you?

Respuesta :

As the bumblebee approaches me, the frequency of sound becomes higher than the 152 Hz because of the velocity with which the bee approaches at 3 m/s.

The speed of the bee causes me to detect an increase of frequency higher than 152 Hz.

This phenomenon is called Doppler Effect.
