The emitter and receiver Doppler effects are re-examined from the point of view of boundary condition on a moving boundary. Formulas are derived for the frequencies of the waves excited on receiver's and emitter's surfaces by the waves traveling thorough the medium. It is shown that if the emitting source and the reflection mirror are moving with the same speed in the same direction relative to a medium at rest, there is no observable Doppler effect. Hence, the nil effect of Michelson and Morley experiment (MME) is the only possible outcome and cannot be construed as an indication about the existence or nonexistence of an absolute continuum. The theory of a new experiment ...
