There are changes in the frequency of the sound waves caused by the motion of the car, which demonstrates the Doppler Effect.

How does does the Doppler effect relate to a passing siren?
Sound is a wave; the sound wave is distorted by the Doppler effect. You can clearly hear the change in pitch, from the point where the car approaches you, to the point where it moves away from you.
Which force actually moves the car?
The accelarator gets pushed and rubberbands push the car !
What percent of gasoline in a car actually moves the car?
It depends on the vehicle and motor, but for most vehicles it's around 45%. Most of the rest of the energy produces heat. There is also some sound and vibration produced. it also depends on the battery life and the cleanliness of the fuel
Why does the pitch of the sound from a race car moving toward you change?
The phenomenon that is observed when a car drives by is called the Doppler effect. Sound travels as a wave, and the source of the sound in this example is the car's motor. Let us suppose that instead, the car has a horn that the driver is holding on as they approach, go by, and drive away with and that the frequency of the horn is 440 Hz. When the car is approaching you, the relative speed of the car to you makes the generated frequency seem greater; the pitch is higher. The change in pitch is caused by the relative speed of the source moving towards you. When the car drives away, the pitch is lower due to the same effect observed above. The only difference is that the frequency is less. The only instance when the pitch would be normal (in this case 440 Hz) is when the is at rest or you are moving at the same speed and in the same direction as the car. Therefore, the driver does not hear a change in pitch, but everyone outside the car does. The Doppler Effect is also observed by astronomers who notice a blue or red hue of distant objects. (Called a Red Shift or a Blue Shift)
A car moves 4 times as fast as another identical car compared to the slower car the faster car has times the KE?

As the sound of a car's horn passes and moves away from you the pitch of the horn seems to?
Decrease.
Why do sound differ from one another?
when car need gaure then its sound will change
Will a flowmaster exhaust change the sound of my car?
YES A flow master exhaust will change the sound and performance of your car. They are mostly recommended for high powered racing cars. It will make the car seem louder and tougher sounding.
The apparent change in the pitch of a car's horn as it moves past you is a reult of the?
doppler effect
When a car moves on a road which force actually moves the car?
torque turns the wheels which moves internal combustion/electric cars. In a jet car, thrust is the force the moves the car.
What causes a car horn to change pitch as the car passes you?
The car's horn doesn't change pitch. As you pass by the Doppler Effect happens. The sound waves get increasingly loud then fade away and become increasingly quiet.
If A car moves at constant speed also moving at constant velocity?
Not necessarily. Constant velocity also means no change in direction.
You sold a car in Fl to someone who lives in CT Which state do you contact to repo the car?
The state in which the car is located. And, if it moves, the state to which it moves.
Do you have a picture of how a car moves?
No
What is the sound of a police car?
They sound like any other car.
What cause a car moves?
What causes a car to move is gasoline.
