Question:
Suppose that a police car is moving to the right at 27 m/s, while a speeder is coming up from behind at a speed of 39 m/s, both speeds being with respect to the ground. Assume that the electromagnetic wave emitted by the police car's radar gun has a frequency of 8.0 × 109 Hz. Find the difference between the frequency of the wave that returns to the police car after reflecting from the speeder's car and the original frequency emitted by the police car.

I have been teaching college students in various subjects for 9 years now. Besides, I have been tutoring online with several tutoring companies from 2010 to date. The 9 years of experience as a tutor has enabled me to develop multiple tutoring skills and see thousands of students excel in their education and in life after school which gives me much pleasure. I have assisted students in essay writing and in doing academic research and this has helped me be well versed with the various writing styles such as APA, MLA, Chicago/ Turabian, Harvard. I am always ready to handle work at any hour and in any way as students specify. In my tutoring journey, excellence has always been my guiding standard.
