The frequency you hear if the cop was driving away from you at a speed of 25 m/s is  652 Hz. The correct option is C.

What is frequency?

It is the number of oscillations per second of the sinusoidal wave.

A cop car’s siren has a frequency of 700. H z. If you are standing on the sidewalk as the cop car approaches you at a speed of 15.0 m/ s.

The cop was driving away from you at a speed of 25 m/s. The speed of sound is 343 m/ s.

The frequency you hear will be calculated using the following formula

f' = f(Vs - Vo)/(Vs +Vc)

Substitute the values into the above equation, we get

f' = 700 x (343 - 0) / (343 + 25)

f' = 652.45 Hz

or f' = 652 Hz

Thus, the frequency you hear when the cop is driving away is  652 Hz.
