Apparent Frequency Apparent Frequency – Moving Observer– Moving Observer
Compared with the stationary observer:Compared with the stationary observer:
– Observer moving Observer moving towardtoward the source the source encounter encounter more waves in each secondmore waves in each second. So the observer . So the observer observes higher frequency. Apparent observes higher frequency. Apparent frequency frequency increasesincreases..
– Similarly, observer moving Similarly, observer moving awayaway from the from the source source encounter less waves in each secondencounter less waves in each second.. Therefore the apparent frequency Therefore the apparent frequency decreasesdecreases..
Apparent Frequency (moving Observer)Apparent Frequency (moving Observer) – Relative Velocity– Relative Velocity
For moving observer, For moving observer,
the apparent frequency results from the the apparent frequency results from the change in change in relative velocityrelative velocity of the sound to of the sound to the observer.the observer.

The apparent change in frequency The apparent change in frequency f f is known as the is known as the Doppler ShiftDoppler Shift..
The Doppler shift The Doppler shift increases as the increases as the relative velocityrelative velocity between the source between the source and the observer and the observer increasesincreases. .
The Doppler effect The Doppler effect applies to all formsapplies to all forms of waves.of waves.

Method to Assign Sign
Step 1: Assign the direction from source to observer be positive
Step 2: If the velocities are in the positive direction, vo and vs are set to be positive.
If the velocities are in the negative direction vo and vs are set to be negative.
Step 3: Put the values of vo and vs with sign into the above equation
