A car traveling 40.0 m/s overtakes another car going only 25.0 m/s. When the faster car is still behind the slower one, it sounds a horn of frequency 1600.0Hz. What is the frequency heard by the driver of the slower car?
f' = ((1 + - Uo/V) / (1 -+ Us/V)) f
Uo would be the slower car
Us would be the faster car
V is the speed of sound
f = ((1 + -25/340)/(1 - +40/340))*1600 = 1680 Hz

A car traveling 34.0 m/s overtakes another car going only 22.0 m/s. When the faster car is still behind the slower one, it sounds a horn of frequency 1100.0Hz. What is the frequency heard by the driver of the slower car?
A car is parked 20.0 m directly south of a railroad crossing. A train is approaching the crossing from the west, headed directly east at a speed of 55.5 m/s. The train sounds a short blast of its 312-Hz horn when it reaches a point 20.0 m west of the crossing. What frequency does the car's driver hear when the horn blast reaches the car? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. (Hint: Assume that only the component...
A car drives at a speed of 26 m/s along a road parallel to a railroad track. A train traveling at 13 m/s sounds a horn that vibrates at 300 Hz.If the train and car are moving toward each other, what frequency of sound is heard by a person in the car?If the train and car are moving away from each other, what frequency of sound is heard in the car?
A car drives at a speed of 25 m/s along a road parallel to a railroad track. A train traveling at 15 m/s sounds a horn that vibrates at 300 Hz. (a) If the train and car are moving toward each other, what frequency of sound is heard by a person in the car? (b) If the train and car are moving away from each other, what frequency of sound is heard in the car?
A Loyola bus going southbound at 25.0 m/s on Lake Shore Drive (LSD) near the Irving Park exit, notices CPD behind them with lights flashing and siren blaring. The police are going 40.0 m/s and are using a siren that operates at f = 1000.0 Hz. Assume the speed of sound at this stretch of LSD is 340.0 m/s. The bus driver pulls over to stop while CPD continues past without changing speed. QUESTION calls for two frequencies: What frequency...
A train is moving parallel and adjacent to a highway with a constant speed of 32 m/s. A car is traveling in the same direction as the train at 64 m/s. The car's horn sounds at 520 Hz and the train's whistle sounds at 320 Hz. When the car is behind the train what frequency does an occupant of the car observe for the train whistle? The speed of sound is 343 m/s. Answer in units of Hz. When the car is in...
Two cars traveling with the same speed move directly away from one another. One car sounds a horn whose frequency is 429 Hz and a person in the other car hears a frequency of 396 Hz. What is the speed of the cars?
Two cars traveling with the same speed move directly away from one another. One car sounds a horn whose frequency is 440 Hz and a person in the other car hears a frequency of 391 Hz. What is the speed of the cars?
Two cars traveling with the same speed move directly away from one another. One car sounds a horn whose frequency is 401 Hz and a person in the other car hears a frequency of 380 Hz. What is the speed of the cars?
An old car is traveling down a long, straight, dry road at 25.0 m/s when the driver slams on the brakes, locking the wheels. The car comes to a complete stop after sliding 235 m in a straight line. If the car has a mass of 755 kg, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road?
