9702Doppler effect for sound waves
A source of sound waves with constant frequency moves towards a stationary observer. The observer compares the sound waves arriving at the observer's position with the waves emitted by the source of sound. What is detected by the observer?
- Aa decreased frequency of the sound waves
- Bno change in frequency of the sound waves
- Ca decreased wavelength of the sound waves
- Dno change in wavelength of the sound waves
