What is the equation used to calculate the frequency observed?
What is the equation used to calculate the frequency observed?
- frequency observed = frequency of source * velocity of observer / velocity of sound (correct)
- frequency observed = velocity of sound / frequency of source * velocity of observer
- frequency observed = velocity of observer / velocity of sound * frequency of source
- frequency observed = frequency of source * velocity of sound / velocity of observer
