Observer A and Observer B are both stationary and at the same distance from the object.
Observer A and Observer B are both stationary and at the same distance from the object.

Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.
Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.

Observer A and Observer B are stationary but at different distances from the vibrating object.
Observer A and Observer B are stationary but at different distances from the vibrating object.

Observer A is stationary and Observer B is moving.

Answer 1

The two correct answers that might cause observers A and B to measure different frequencies for the same vibrating object are:

1. Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.
2. Observer A is stationary and Observer B is moving.

These situations involve the Doppler effect, where the frequency of a wave changes due to the relative motion between the observer and the source of the wave.
