A plane flies toward a stationary siren at 1/4 the speed of sound. Then the plane stands still on the ground and the siren is driven toward it at 1/4 the speed of sound.
 
  In both cases, a person sitting in the plane will hear the same frequency of sound from the siren. A) True
  B) False

Question 2

A stationary siren emits sound of frequency 1000 Hz and wavelength 0.343 m. An observer who is moving toward the siren will measure a frequency f and wavelength  for this sound such that
 
  A) f > 1000 Hz and  > 0.343 m.
  B) f > 1000 Hz and  = 0.343 m.
  C) f > 1000 Hz and  < 0.343 m.
  D) f = 1000 Hz and  < 0.343 m.
