• Students are able to apply the Doppler effect in various daily needs and in applications in technology
• Students are able to conclude the Doppler principle
D. Learning Materials
Doppler Effect
The Doppler effect is the change in the frequency of the sound received by the listener due to a change in the distance (relative motion)
between the sound source and the listener. The frequency of the sound received by the listener is greater than the frequency of the source if
the distance between the sound source and the listener is getting closer, and vice versa.
• When an ambulance is about to pass us, it will sound loud when it approaches and weaken when the ambulance moves away.
• This happens because when the sound source approaches the waves that reach the ears, they are closer together so that the frequency is
getting bigger and if they are moving away, the frequency is getting smaller.
The general formula for the frequency shift in the Doppler effect can be expressed as:
(v ± v p)
With: f p= fs
(v ± vs )
f p is the frequency heard by the listener.
f s is the frequency emitted by the sound source.
v p is listener speed.
v s is the speed of the sound source.
v is the speed of sound in air.
Information:
The + sign for v p is used when the listener moves closer to the sound source.
The - sign for v p is used when the listener moves away from the sound source.
The + sign for v s is used when the sound source moves away from the listener.
The - sign for v sis used when the sound source moves toward the listener.
