Answer:

when a sound object moves towards you, the frequency of the sound waves increases, leading to a higher pitch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Description: Doppler Effect works on both light and sound objects. For instance, when a sound object moves towards you, the frequency of the sound waves increases, leading to a higher pitch. Conversely, if it moves away from you, the frequency of the sound waves decreases and the pitch comes down.
