A bat emits a high-pitched squeal at 50.0 kHz as it approaches an insect at 10.0 m/s. The insect flies away from the bat, and the reflected wave that echoes off the insect returns to the bat at a frequency of 50,040 Hz. 1) Calculate the speed of the insect as it tries to avoid being the bat's next meal. (Abat can eat over 3000 mosquitoes in one night!) (Express your answer to three significant figures.) 9.86 Submit
