Answer #1

applying doppler's effect for source approaches to the observer

f = fo v / ( v - vs)

f = 1980* 343 / ( 343 - 34.3)

f = 2200 Hz

=======

similary when source moves away from stationary observer

f = 1980 * 343 / ( 343 + 34.3)

f = 1800 Hz

======

comment before rate in case any doubt, will reply for sure.. goodluck
