What is the Doppler effect?

• The change in frequency and wavelength caused by motion of the sound source

• The change in amplitude of a wave due to the observer's position

• The change in speed of sound in different mediums

• The change in pitch of a sound due to the temperature of the environment

What is the term used to describe the change in frequency due to motion?

• Sonic boom

• Resonance

• Doppler shift

• Frequency modulation

What happens to the frequency of a wave when an object is moving towards the receiver, causing a positive Doppler shift?

• The frequency remains the same.

• The frequency is less than transmitted.

• The frequency is greater than transmitted.

• The frequency becomes zero.

What is observed when there is a negative Doppler shift?

• The object is stationary relative to the receiver.

• The object is moving towards the receiver.

• The object is moving away from the receiver.

• The received frequency is greater than transmitted.

What happens to the frequency of the reflected sound when red blood cells are moving toward the transducer?

• The frequency remains the same

• The frequency becomes unpredictable

• The frequency is reflected at higher frequencies than what the transducer is producing

• The frequency is reflected at lower frequencies than what the transducer is producing
