Police radar guns work by measuring the change in frequency of a reflected pulse of electromagnetic waves. A gun reads correctly only if a car is moving directly toward or away from the person making the measurement. Explain why this is so. Is a highway patrol officer likely then to overestimate or underestimate the speed at which your car is moving
