the doppler effect results from the fact that as a moving object approaches
an observer, the apparent frequency of its sound waves increase.
The subject of the clause "the apparent frequency of its sound waves increase" is "the apparent frequency", which is a singular noun phrase. So the verb "increase" (used for plural subjects or first/second person singular in present simple) is incorrect. The correct verb should be "increases" to agree with the singular subject.
