    Radar can detect the velocity of an object by emitting brief pulses of radio waves and detecting the frequency that returns. The detected waves are Doppler shifted and should be:

     

    A

    a higher frequency if the object is moving toward the radar source.

    B

    a lower frequency if the object is moving toward the radar source.
