The following animation represents a cross section of a three-dimensional sound wave propagating away from a moving source. The circles represent successive peaks of the waves. There are five different animations, each with a different source velocity. Clicking inside the Animation box will give you the x and y coordinates (in meters) of the point that you click. The time shown in the animation is in msec (1x10^-3). You may assume that all the waves travel at the same velocity.
