Physics Help?

Post by Fishhead »

I've missed the past three days of school due to the flu. So.. I'm trying to catch up on physics problems but since I missed the notes I don't know how to do doppler effect problems. I just need someone to walk me through one of the problems so that I know how to do them. Thanks :)



Here's one of the problems:



1. Sitting on the beach at Coney Island one afternoon, Sunny finds herself beneath the flight path of the airplanes leaving Kennedy Airport. What frequency will Sunny hear as a jet, whose engines emit sound at a frequency of 1000 Hz, flies toward her at a speed of 100 m/sec? What frequency will Sunny observe as the jet travels away from her at the same speed?
