A bat locates insects by emitting ultrasonic "chirps" and then listening for echoes from the bugs. suppose a bat chirp has a frequency of 25 khz. part a how fast would the bat have to fly for you to just barely be able to hear the chirp at 20 khz?

The speed for someone to hear the bat is categorized by the Doppler Effect. In order for a person to hear the bat v would have to be the speed of sound in the air (340/m/s) and v_b would be the speed of the bat. Therefore, v_b = v (f_bat - f_obs)/f_obs = 85 m/s would be the answer.
