Question 1
A ship is sailing towards the coast at 15 m/s, and it uses a horn that emits a sound of 300 Hz. Calculate the frequency heard by a person standing on the shore assuming the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s.
💡 Hint: Make sure to apply the correct values in the formula carefully.
Question 2
A distant galaxy is moving away from the Earth at a speed of 3000 km/s. If the emitted light wavelength is 600 nm, calculate the observed wavelength using the formula Δλ/λ = v_r/c.
💡 Hint: Convert the velocity into the same units as the speed of light for accurate calculation.
