Whenever the frequency of a sound wave changes, regardless of what caused it to change, the change is perceived as a change in the pitch of the sound.
Austrian physicist Christian Johann Doppler (1803-1853)discovered that a wave's frequency changes when the source and observer are in motion relative to one another. This is known as the Doppler effect.
Doppler effect is a change in frequency and wavelength of a wave. It is caused by the change in distance between the thing creating the wave (causer) and whatever is measuring (watcher), seeing or hearing the wave.Another word for "causer" is "sender". Another word for "change in distance" is "speed".(taken from simple wikipedia).
The frequency of any wave system, sound or electromagnetic, will be changed by the source object moving towards us, or away from us. Ascending Doppler shift for those approaching us, descending pitch for those departing.
To be more specific, a sound source moving toward you will appear to emit a sound of higher frequency than actual. Conversely, a sound source moving away from you will appear to emit a sound of lower frequency than actual. See "the Doppler effect."

An Austrian physicist, Christian Doppler, is best known for the effect named after him, the Doppler effect, which he proposed in 1842. It is the change in frequency of a wave as measured by an observer in motion relative to the source of the wave.The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift) is the change in frequency and wavelength of a wave for an observer moving relative to the source of the waves. It is commonly heard when a vehicle sounding a siren approaches, passes and recedes from an observer. The received frequency is increased (compared to the emitted frequency) during the approach, it is identical at the instant of passing by, and it is decreased during the receding motion. The higher or lower frequency alters the pitch of the sound as heard by a stationary listener, making it sound higher-pitched or lower-pitched.

A frequency higher than the original frequency.
The Doppler Effect. It's a change in frequency cause by the motion of the sound source, the motion of the listener, or both. As a source of sound approaches, observers hear a higher frequency. When the sound source moves away, observers hear a lower frequency. This effect was discovered by an Austrian scientist named Christian Doppler. Example: An ambulance siren. As the ambulance approaches a stationary observer, the frequency seems to increase. As the ambulance moves farther away, the loudness of the siren seems to decrease.

It is possible to have artificial selection in nature because of naturally occurring changes in the environment. These changes can greatly modify the organisms in question.

Yes. you will likely be hearing both yours and the babies. depending on the angle you point the Doppler at.
The wavelength is compressed by the additional velocity of the car, so the frequency heard is higher than that generated in the horn. It's known as the Doppler Effect.
