When a sound-source moves toward you, its pitch gets higher and the sound gets louder. When it moves away, the pitch lowers and it gets quieter. The frequency change is called the Doppler shift.
When the frequency of the vibrations that produce the sound change. Higher frequencies -> higher pitch. OR if the source of the sound is moving towards or away from you -> Doppler effect.
The doppler effect happens when the source of a sound is moving. When it is moving towards you, it sounds louder and can have a different pitch and when the source is moving away, its a quieter more "far-off" sound. This is because when the source is moving, the sound waves are getting compressed in front of it due to relative velocity. Once the sound wave is made, it's speed is independent of its source. This is also how a sonic boom happens. At super sonic speeds, the sound barrier is broken which is the build up of all the sound waves created.

If you have a high pitch whooping sound from the front of your engine, it is most likely your HVAC system. You may need to replace the heater module.Ê

If the source of a sound is moving towards you, then the pitch of the soundyou hear is higher than the pitch of sound that the source is actually emitting.The rate of speed doesn't matter.BTW ... this also happens if you are moving toward the source.
Yes, the frequency is higher - same as if the moving source was towards a stationary person -it is all relative
pitch
False
The term audio frequency is a frequency of sound that a person can hear. It is the part of sound that controls pitch. The pitch of sound is measured by hertz.
