Detailed Solution

Intensity of sound heard changes when an observer moves towards or away from a stationary source.

Intensity of sound at any point is dependent upon frequency as well as amplitude . As due to Doppler effect the apparent frequency changes , so intensity as perceived by the listener also changes .
The motion of observer causes apparent change in frequency due to greater number of interception of wavefronts.
