Question

An ambulance is traveling East at 20m/s. The siren emits a fixed frequency of 350Hz. Each of the following cars is traveling down the road as described. Rank the cars according to the frequency the driver will hear. Select 1 for the car which will hear the highest frequency. Remember that if the frequency is the same, select the same rank and skip the next number. I really suggest drawing a picture to help sort this out. Keep in mind the relative speed - How fast does it seem the ambulance is moving towards or away from each driver?
1 2 3 4  A car driving East at a speed of 20m/s. The car is in front of the ambulance.
1 2 3 4  A car driving West at a speed of 25m/s. The car has already passed the ambulance.
1 2 3 4  A car driving West at a speed of 15m/s. The car has already passed the ambulance.
1 2 3 4  A car sitting stationary at the side of the road watching the ambulance moving away.

Rank as 1,2,3, or 4. Some numbers may repeat, could be 1,1,3,4, etc.
