Answer: The correct answer is "the Doppler effect".

Explanation:

Doppler effect is the phenomenon in which there is a relative motion between the observer and the source.  It may result to apparent change in the frequency.

Scientists use the Doppler effect to understand the universe by determining the motion of the object.

Red shift: It is a phenomenon which results from the Doppler effect. Light changes as the object in space (such as star or galaxies) moves towards from us then the light is shifted to blue end. In this case, the light is shifted to shorter wavelength.

Therefore, the correct option is (B).

Assume a comet is traveling at a constant velocity in deep space. Why would it speed up as it approaches our solar system?
allsm [11]
D
The comet has no net force acting on it, which results in constant velocity. Near our solar system, the influence of the gravitational forces due to the sun and the planets will increase as we know that gravitational force is:
F = GMm/r²
The net force will produce an acceleration on the comet, which will cause its velocity to change.

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 15 meters away. A man 1.8 meters tall walks away from the spotlight toward the buildi
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

s=(15-x)m

Explanation:

Let the distance from spotlight to wall be 15m, and distance from the man to the building be x.

#Therefore the height of the shadow as a function of the above is s=(15-x )m

Hence, height of the shadow is expressed as s=(15-x)m

According to a certain estimate, the depth N(t), in centimeters, of the water in a certain tank at t hours past 2:00 in the morn
never [62]

Answer:

b) 7.00

Explanation:

N( t ) = -20( t - 5 )²

dN/ dt = -20 x 2 ( t - 5 )

For maximum N ( depth )

dN/dt = 0

- 40 ( t - 5 ) = 0

t = 5

So at 2 + 5 = 7 .00 am depth of water reaches its maximum.

A ray of white light moves through the air and strikes the surface of water in a beaker. The index of refraction of the water is
Naily [24]

Answer:

except ii and iii

Explanation:

The angle of reflection is the angle to the normal the white rays strikes the water surface and it is the incidence angle. Since the white light is moving from less dense medium to a denser medium or a medium with a higher refractive index; the angle of refraction will be less than 30 degrees. Total internal reflection cannot occur because the white light is traveling from a less dense medium to a denser medium.
