Resumen de A Pedagogical Model for the Doppler Effect with Application to Sources with Constant Accelerations

Lakshya P. S. Kaura, Praveen Pathak

• Kinematic models are often very useful. The back and forth throw of a ball between two ice skaters may help us appreciate the meson exchange theory of Yukawa. If the skaters throw the balls at each other, they move backward, which is equivalent to a repulsive force between them. On the other hand, if they snatch the ball from each other, the result will be akin to an equivalent attractive force between them.1 Such illustrative models may help us understand advanced concepts.
