A bat is flitting about in a cave, navigating via ultrasonic bleeps. Assume that the sound emission frequency of the bat is 39,113 Hz. During one fast swoop directly toward a flat wall surface, the bat is moving at 12 m/s, what frequency does the bat hear reflected off the wall? The speed of sound is 340 m/s.
