The change in pitch of a sound when it moves towards you is known as Doppler effect. When a sound source moves towards you, the waves bunch up, causing a higher frequency and therefore a higher pitch. Conversely, when the source moves away, the waves spread out, resulting in a lower frequency and pitch.
