"The frequency of a wave changes depending on the motion of the source relative to the observer."
Austrian mathematician & physicist Christian Doppler died #OTD in 1853.
He is best known for his discovery of the Doppler effect which describes the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source. This principle has since been applied in various fields, including astronomy, medicine (Doppler ultrasound) & radar technology.
