If the Earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these star

s?
A.Wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted.
B.Wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted.
C.Wavelengths measured would be longer than the actual wavelengths emitted.

A.Wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted.

B.Wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted.

C.Wavelengths measured would be longer than the actual wavelengths emitted.

There's no such thing as "stationary in space".  But if the distance
between the Earth and some stars is not changing, then (A) w<span>avelengths
measured here would match the actual wavelengths emitted from these
stars. </span><span>

</span><span>If a star is moving toward us in space, then (A) Wavelengths measured
would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted from that star.

</span>In order to decide what's actually happening, and how that star is moving, 
the trick is:  How do we know the actual wavelengths the star emitted ?

mars1129 [50]

To solve this problem, we use the equation:

<span>d = (v^2  - v0^2) / 2a</span>

 

where,

d = distance of collapse

v0 = initial velocity = 101 km / h = 28.06 m / s

v = final velocity = 0

a = acceleration = - 300 m / s^2

 

d = (-28.06 m / s)^2 / (2 * - 300 m / s^2)

<span>d = 1.31 m</span>

The rocket is fired vertically and tracked by the radar station shown. When θ reaches 66°, other corresponding measurements give
Flauer [41]

Answer:

velocity = 1527.52 ft/s

Acceleration = 80.13 ft/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Radius of rotation; r = 32,700 ft

Radial acceleration; a_r = r¨ = 85 ft/s²

Angular velocity; ω = θ˙˙ = 0.019 rad/s

Also, angle θ reaches 66°

So, velocity of the rocket for the given position will be;

v = rθ˙˙/cos θ

so, v = 32700 × 0.019/ cos 66

v = 1527.52 ft/s

Acceleration is given by the formula ;

a = a_r/sinθ

For the given position,

a_r = r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²

Thus,

a = (r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²)/sinθ

Plugging in the relevant values, we obtain;

a = (85 - 32700(0.019)²)/sin66

a = (85 - 11.8047)/0.9135

a = 80.13 ft/s²
