Problem 4: A bat flies towards a wall and emits a 5000 Hz sound wave. The speed of sound in the air is 343 m/s.

              A: If the sound pulse takes 7 miliseconds to reflect off the wall and come back, how far from the wall is the bat?

              B: If the frequency observed by the bat of the reflected wave is 165 Hz higher, how fast is the bat approaching the wall?

Bats emit a high pitched wave that is reflected off their prey and back to the bat. The bat can then know where the prey is in order to eat it. The frequency that the bat emits is 50,000 HZ and the bat is moving 10 m/s towards its prey. The temperature of the air is 20 degrees Celsius. a) What is the speed of the prey if the bat hears a frequency of 50,050 Hz? b) Is the prey...
