    Thank you so much! I solved the problem with your help. Have a great day!

    Beat frequency and velocity of observer

    A loud pitch at antinodes and a low one in nodes, since they represent constructive and destructive interference point (?) I'm really sorry about all the confusion I'm causing.

    Beat frequency and velocity of observer

    Antinodes = high pitch sound Nodes = low or normal pitch sounds Is that correct?

    Beat frequency and velocity of observer

    So, the beats represent a relationship between nodes and antinodes? Since I'm walking from a high frequency to a lower one? I don't get how this will help since beats are just a difference.

    Beat frequency and velocity of observer

    Okay, so I went with both sources shifting. That means f2= 230.25 and f1= 227.75 (in order to get 2.5 as the result of their differences) Now I get the wavelength using the speed equation y = V/f , with v = 343 m/s (speed of sound). So 343/230.25 = 1.506 Same with the second frequency...

    Beat frequency and velocity of observer

    The question didn't specify, so I assumed both have doppler shift and solved for the correct velocity. Keep in mind that the question asks for the velocity using the standing wave model.

    Beat frequency and velocity of observer

    Homework Statement Two sound sources 15m apart producing identical 229 Hz sounds. As you move from one to the other, you hear beat frequency of 2.5. How fast are you moving?[/B] Homework Equations The question asks for the velocity of the observer Vo. The trick here is to use the standing wave...
