The Doppler effect describes frequency change when a source and observer are in relative motion. Sound pitches higher when approaching and lower when receding.
Formel
f' = f × (v ± v_observer) / (v ∓ v_source)

Løste eksempler
Inndata
f = 440 Hz, source approaching at 10 m/s, v = 340 m/s
Resultat
f' ≈ 454 Hz
Observed frequency increases
Vanlige feil å unngå
- ✕Wrong sign conventions for approaching/receding
- ✕Using ground speed instead of relative speed
