They are to visit my website www.mrsnork.com and click on the link for the Doppler Effect WQ. They should use these sites (on my website): http://archive.ncsa.illinois.edu/Cyberia/Bima/doppler.html (for questions # 1-9) and http://webphysics.davidson.edu/Applets/Applets.html (for questions #10-20).
