Answer:
c. detecting the gravitational effect of an orbiting planet (The Wobble"") by looking for the Doppler shifts in the star's spectrum
Explanation:
In a solar system the mass of the star and planets affect each other's orbital movements. The center of gravity of a star and a planet is inside the star. This causes the star to be closer and farther from the Earth at different times. Due to this wobble the star appears to be red shifted when it is farther and blue shifted when it is closer.
When the mass of the planet is high, like a hot Jupiter it causes more wobble i.e., change in radial velocity. This makes it easier to detect the planet. The earliest hot Jupiter found by this method is the planet 51 Pegasi b.
Answer:
C. The forces are balanced.
Explanation:
Every answer other than C means the object moved.
Answer:
The acceleration is 1 cm/s^2.
Explanation:
The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Here, initial velocity, u = 3/1 = 3 cm/s
final velocity, v = 4/1 = 4 cm/s
time, t = 1 s
Let the acceleration is a.
Use first equation of motion
v = u + at
4 = 3 + 1 x a
a = 1 cm/s^2
Acceleration means any change in the speed or direction of motion.
