How does the apparent frequency change when there is relative motion between the source of sound and observer?

answered-by-expert Expert Answer
When the source of sound approaches towards stationary observer or observer approaches towards source, the apparent frequency increases and when two recede away from each other the apparent frequency decreases.

If n' is the apparent frequency, n is the true frequency, us is the velocity of source, u0 is the velocity of observer and V is the velocity of sound, then write the following results : (i)  Observer at rest, source in motion towards the observer. (ii)  Observer at rest, source in motion away from the observer. (iii)  Source at rest, observer source in motion towards the source. (iv)  Source at rest, observer in motion away from the source. (v)  Source and observer both moving away from each other. (vi)  Source and observer both moving towards each other. (vii)  Source and observer both in motion in the same direction with the same velocity.
