Doppler Effect Assessment

This term is defined as the number of waves that pass by a specific point in a particular amount of time.

• Frequency

• Wavelength

• Amplitude

This term is defined as the quality that makes it possible to judge a sound as 'higher' and 'lower'

• Volume

• Pitch

• Frequency

• Wavelength

This term is defined as the loudness of a sound.

• Amplitude

• Pitch

• Volume

• Wavelength

This the distance between two crests in a wave.

• Frequency

• Amplitude

• Wavelength

• Volume

This term is defined as the perceived change in frequency as the source of a wave moves towards or away from the observer

• The Big Bang Theory

• The Doppler Effect

• Higher Frequency

• Lower Frequency

Which on of the waves here has the HIGHER frequency?

• Wave A

• Wave B

Which one of the waves would produce a lower pitch sound?

• Wave A

• Wave B

What happens to frequency as the source of wave moves towards an observer

• It gets higher

• It gets lower

• It stays the same

What happens to frequency as a source of a wave moves away from an observer?

• It gets higher

• It gets lower

• It stays the same

If a light source is moving past an observer. When will the observer perceive a blue shift in light?

• When the light source is moving away from the observer

• When the light source is moving toward the observer

• When the light source is not moving
