Answer

The girl hears a frequency of $~~500.0~Hz$

Work Step by Step

In this situation: $f = 500.0~Hz$ $v_D = 20.00~m/s$ $v_S = 20.00~m/s$ We can find the frequency that the girl hears: $f' = f~\frac{v+v_D}{v+v_S}$ $f' = (500.0~Hz)~(\frac{343~m/s+20.00~m/s}{343~m/s+20.00~m/s})$ $f' = 500.0~Hz$ The girl hears a frequency of $~~500.0~Hz$
