Question

Doppler shift in frequency does not depend upon

• A. the frequency of wave produced
• B. the speed of the source
• C. distance between source and observer
• D. the speed of the observer

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

distance between source and observer

Answer 2

Change of frequency due to the Doppler effect is : $\bar{n}=n\left(\frac{v-v_{0}}{v-v_{s}}\right) .$ This is independent of distance between source and observer.
