How would the sound reaching you from a fire truck siren be changed if instead of approaching you the fire truck was moving away?

As the fire truck moves away from you, the pitch of the siren would sound lower. This is because the sound waves are stretched out or lengthened due to the Doppler effect, resulting in a lower frequency of sound reaching your ears.


In situations will the observer perceive the highest frequency from the fire truck siren?
