This diagram shows some air particles as a sound wave passes.

(c) The sound wave has a frequency of $240 \mathrm{Hz}$. Explain, in terms of the movement of an individual particle, what this means.

(d) The wave speed of the sound is $320{ \mathrm{ms}}^{-1}$. Calculate the wavelength of the wave.

In an experiment, a student is determining the speed of sound using the equation $v=f\lambda$. The values of frequency $f$ and wavelength $\lambda$ are shown below:
$f=1000\pm 10 \mathrm{Hz}$

$\lambda =33\pm 2 \mathrm{cm}$

Determine the speed $v$ including the absolute uncertainty.

(a) Sound is described as a longitudinal wave. Describe sound waves in terms of the movements of the air particles.

(c) The wavelength of the sound is found to be $1.98 \mathrm{m}$. Calculate the speed of sound.

The Doppler effect can be used to measure the speed of blood. Ultrasound, which is sound of high frequency, is passed from a transmitter into the body, where it reflects off particles in the blood. The shift in frequency is measured by a stationary detector, placed outside the body and close to the transmitter. In one patient, particles in the blood are moving at a speed of $30 \mathrm{cm}{ \mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ in a direction directly away from the transmitter. The speed of ultrasound in the body is $1500 \mathrm{cm}{ \mathrm{s}}^{-1}$.

This situation is partly modelled by considering the particles to be emitting sound of frequency $4.000\mathrm{MHz}$ as they move away from the detector. This sound passes to the detector outside the body and the frequency measured by the detector is not $4.000\mathrm{MHz}$.

State whether the frequency received by the stationary detector is higher or lower than the frequency emitted by the moving particles.
