While Emitting Light of Proper Frequency F0, a Source Moves

Question 3

Multiple Choice

While emitting light of proper frequency f0, a source moves to the right with speed c/4 relative to reference frame S. A detector, to the left of the source, measures the frequency to be f, which is greater than f0. This means: While emitting light of proper frequency f<sub>0</sub>, a source moves to the right with speed c/4 relative to reference frame S. A detector, to the left of the source, measures the frequency to be f, which is greater than f<sub>0</sub>. This means:   A)  the detector is moving to the right with a speed that is greater than c/4 relative to S B)  the detector is moving to the right with a speed that is less than c/4 relative to S C)  the detector is moving to the left with a speed that is greater than c/4 relative to S D)  the detector is moving to the left with a speed that is less than c/4 relative to S E)  the detector is not moving


A) the detector is moving to the right with a speed that is greater than c/4 relative to S
