  1. Wave Formula v = f l What determines the speed of a wave? • The source • The medium • The energy/amplitude • The frequency Wave Speed

  2. Doppler Effect • The apparent change in frequency due to the motion of the source (or receiver) • The Doppler effect is applied to ALL waves • Sound • Water • Light • etc

  3. No Motion - No frequency change

  4. Motion = apparent frequency change Larger frequency Higher pitch Smaller frequency Lower pitch

  5. Point Source – Moving Draw this picture v = f l v does not change How has l changed in the direction of motion? l is smaller f is larger

  6. Point Source – Moving v = f l v does not change How has l changed opposite the direction of motion? l is bigger f is smaller

  7. Complete worksheet

  8. What happens when source moves faster that the wave?
