Objective
(1) Understand the principles of the ultrasonic Doppler effect and its application in speed measurement.
(2) Design and build an ultrasonic Doppler speedometer to measure the velocity of a moving object.
(3) Analyze experimental data and improve measurement accuracy.
Principle
The ultrasonic Doppler effect states that when ultrasonic waves encounter a moving target (such as a small car or fluid), the frequency of the reflected wave shifts. The frequency shift Δf is related to the velocity v of the target as follows:
where c is the speed of sound in air; θ is the angle between the wave propagation direction and the target's motion.
