Homework Statement
Why does a source moving perpendicular to the line between it and the observer produce no doppler effect?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I have heard the the radial velocity of the source relative to the observer must be zero but i don't understand why, if the distance between the source and the observer is increasing or decreasing , shouldn't there be a doppler effect since the wave length is changing?
