The Doppler Effect

Imagine that

At that exact moment,

At that exact moment, the driver receives a call,…

…and begins to blast

Sound waves begin to disperse

Since the ambulance

The pitch is determined

The pitch is determined by the wavelength,…

…and this pitch

…and this pitch has a medium tone.

(medium tone)

The sound waves

The mailman knows

…so he decides

As the ambulance

As the ambulance begins to move forward,…

…its sound waves also

The waves in front

The waves in front of the ambulance…

…are now a lot

…are now a lot closer together.

And the waves

And the waves behind the ambulance…

…are now a lot

…are now a lot farther apart.

Since tone is determined

Since tone is determined by the wavelengths,…

…then the wavelengths on front side

…then the wavelengths on front side will now sound higher in pitch,…

This concept is called

The Doppler Effect is defined

The Doppler Effect is defined as the change in the wavelengths…

…due to the relative motion

…due to the relative motion between the observer and the source.

The key term here

So whether the ambulance

Because either way,

…there is motion which exists

…there is motion which exists between the (2) objects.

And it’s this relative motion

And it’s this relative motion between the (2) objects…

…which causes the Doppler Effect

…which causes the Doppler Effect to be created and detected.

The shortening of the wavelengths

The shortening of the wavelengths on the front end of the ambulance…

…is called

shorterlonger So a broad bar

shorterlonger So a broad bar indicates a fast rotation.

shorterlonger

shorterlonger And if the star

shorterlonger

shorterlonger …then the bar would reduce

Review

shorterlonger So not only can we determine
