A siren on an ambulance emits a sound of frequency \(800\ \text{Hz}\). The ambulance moves directly towards a stationary observer with a constant speed \(v\). The observer hears a frequency of \(877\ \text{Hz}\). After the ambulance passes the observer and moves away with the same speed, the observer hears a frequency of \(735\ \text{Hz}\). Assuming the speed of sound in air is \(340\ \text{m s}^{-1}\), determine the speed \(v\) of the ambulance (in \(\text{m s}^{-1}\)).
