We were doing some physics problems with sound and the Doppler effect today. One problem had two scenarios where one was source moving away and the other was the listener moving away. The math gave two answers that were close but not the same. I don’t understand how they can be different when speed is relative.

Because when something moves, it warps the sound wave around itself, whereas when you move, you just perceive the sound wage differently.
