The Doppler effect only works because the VELOCITY of the Sound/Signal is CONSTANT. So if the sender moves toward the receiver, the only way to fit the same number of oscillations in between is to compress them. And compressing waves means increase the frequency. (This is how my Physics Professor explained it to me, 20 years ago ;-)

Subtract 1 from both sides in Doppler effect formula {fr = fo(v-vo/v-vs) vo is velocity of object, vs is velocity of source, v is velocity of sound, (sign convention = positive when moving in the direction of sound otherwise negative)} to get the formula written on board.

Fist of all, your videos are very informative, to the point and well detailed! Keep it up!!! I also have three quick questions, I'd really appreciate it if you could answer them! 1)What is the range of most radar guns in order to clock your speed accurately, in order for someone (me) to get a ticket? 2)Also can the police with a LASER gun clock you while the police vehicle is being driven? ( I know its possible while using radar gun, but not sure about laser) 3)I have the escort redline, is there some sort of a method to understand if the signal is coming from the front or the rear of my vehicle? (the redline doesn't have any arrows as you know, so are there any elimination steps that I can take in order to have some kind of an idea) Thank you for taking the time to answer these burning questions I have loll! Keep up the good work :D

@VortexRadar 8 жыл бұрын
+4shebby I'll do a video on your first question since it gets asked so often. The answer is that it depends wildly. The second one, laser is stationary only. I'll do a video on moving mode radar and it'll make sense why it doesn't work with laser. You can sorta tell direction with an arrow-less RD. You basically just pay attention to the signal strength on the display and the audio rampup and correlate that to what's going on around you in your terrain. It takes more brainpower and analysis, but it's possible.

ok awesome for the quick reply! and as for the third pard question, im guessing if theres a cop behind or in front of you and they turn on their gun, the signal is going to be super strong. Also how long does the radar gun needs in order to give you an accurate reading which the police can ticket you. Once there was a cop behind me and he kept turning his k bank gun on and off20-25 seconds each time. How long do they need to clock you before they are confident that you are speeding or not (5-10 seconds?) thanks

He forgot to add the fact that you divide the final answer by 2 because the radar gun originally calculates the distance both ways so it doubles the speed. Halving the result will give you the actual speed of the object. So, in this case, 130 mph divided by 2 is 65 mph.

Man I love your videos! So educational. I recently purchased a redline and programmed it to your specifications with your tips. I'm located in Missouri and had to turn off my K band because it never stops going off. Should I keep it on and just turn on TSR or does that "cripple" the K band too much so I might as well just keep it off. Thanks in advance for the help.
@VortexRadar
@VortexRadar 8 жыл бұрын
Oh yeah, TSR is basically a must in most places. You do lose some range and it becomes a little slower, but without TSR the detector can be pretty unusable in populated areas so it's a necessary trade-off. Try out Auto Mode as well to help with the falsing further. Then add lockouts using an Escort Live cable and you'll get some more filtering in the city too. :)

@Martin-kn1cn
@Martin-kn1cn 11 ай бұрын
Alright so it is important to measure straight on otherwise it results in inaccuracy due to cosine error. But the measured speed would be slower than the actual speed which works in your favor (at least if your not the police man). For handheld radar it’s essentially impossible to account for cosine error but I think if a stationary radar always measures the car at the same point on the road they could factor in the angle. Nonetheless the difference is minor and would only please the driver.

Was this just a lying cop or would *both vehicles doing roughly 50 mph towards each other* effect the result the gun shows?

@VortexRadar
@VortexRadar 7 жыл бұрын
No. Radar guns are designed to track multiple vehicles moving in different directions, some bigger and some smaller, some faster and some slower. They have strongest and fastest modes so even a strong signal won't prevent a faster signal from showing up on screen. Normally the classic example is a big slow semi and a small fast sports car. The sports car is faster (weaker signal) but the radar gun can still capture its speed in addition to the stronger return signal of the semi. Jamming and returning a fake signal are two different things. :)

+tirips etihw Solid objects reflect radio waves, correct

just to correct ur information . doppler radar transmits microwave not radio wave

Microwaves ARE a form of radio waves, but they are extremely high frequency radio waves. No actual "radios" operate at that frequency, but it's a name that we give to that class of electromagnetic radiation. It is also sometimes referred to as "radiofrequency" (or RF) radiation. It's just different names for the same thing.

deltaF = ((34.7e9 * deltaV of 65 mph) \ (186282.3971 * 3600)) = 3363HZ plus or minus or zero if at cpa (closest point of approach)

So if a police officer is going 50mph, and the car ahead is going 80mph, would the radar read 30mph? How do they work while on the move?

I am not good in science so don't mock please. But if there are several cars on both roads, not just one car on the road, then wouldn't all these waves kinda get mixed up? #justcurious

What if you put the car into neutral before the speed gun hits the car? What happens then? Does it still calculate your speed ?

Of course. Your car is still reflecting the signal just the same, no matter what your transmission is doing.

Ottaney Bell Well obviously, you’re still moving. You would have to slam on your brakes & probably cause an accident lol.

Thanks. So in essence there isn't an actual way to beat the speed gun at recording your speed then

Ottaney Bell There actually is. You can buy a radar that will notify you if anyone is pointing a speed gun at your car, giving you a chance to slow down.

Seems like half of the math is missing. How do you get from 6,713 cycles per second to 65 mph?

Is it true that if you put tin foil in your empty pockets of your car it reflex’s the radar gun in a different direction and they can’t get a reading off you ?
