Question
A motorcycle's horn is blowing out a 3015 Hz sound as it moves eastward towards a stationary observer. A train sounds its horn at 855 Hz as it heads westward away from that same observer. If the observer hears the train as 850 Hz and the motorcycle's horn as 3060 Hz, what is the speed of the motorcycle relative to the train (in m/s) ? Use 340 m/s as the speed of sound in air.
