Question

Does the Doppler effect depend on distance?

Solution

Explanation:

Since the doppler effect is dependent on the distance between sound and the observer. The relationship is a relative relationship where the sound frequency is higher as the distance is closer from the stagnant observer and the frequency becomes lower as the distance increases from the stagnant observer.

Therefore the relationship between sound and observer is relative, which means that there is an inverse relationship. In this case, as there is a stagnant sound and the observer moves, the frequency becomes higher as the distance decreases. If the observer moves and the distance becomes larger, it means that the sound frequency becomes lower.

Hence, the Doppler effect depends on distance.
