distant galaxy emits light that has a wavelength of 434.1 nm. On earth, the wavelength of this light is measured to be 438.6 nm.
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The speed of the galaxy relative to the Earth is 3.09\times 10^6\ m/s.

Explanation:

We have,

(a) Wavelength emitted by light at distant galaxy is 434.1 nm. On earth, the wavelength of this light is measured to be 438.6 nm. It can be seen that the wavelength of light reduces as it reaches Earth. It is called Red shift. As per Doppler's effect, we can say that the galaxy is receding from the Earth.

(b) Let v is the speed of the galaxy relative to the Earth. It can be given by :

v=c(\dfrac{\lambda'}{\lambda}-1)\\\\v=3\times 10^8\times (\dfrac{438.6 }{434.1 }-1)\\\\v=3\times 10^8\times (\dfrac{438.6}{434.1}-1)\\\\v=0.0103\cdot3\cdot10^{8}\\\\v=3.09\times 10^6\ m/s

So, the speed of the galaxy relative to the Earth is 3.09\times 10^6\ m/s.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Option C, 139 m/s

Explanation:

s = d/t

s = 500*10^3/3600

s = 138.8 = 139 m/s

Why is it important to study electromagnetic waves?
labwork [276]
The study of EM is essential to understanding the properties of light, its propagation through tissue, scattering and absorption effects, and changes in the state of polarization. ... Since light travels much faster than sound, detection of the reflected EM radiation is performed with interferometry.

Two planets have the same surface gravity, but planet b has twice the radius of planet
nevsk [136]
The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is:

a = Gm/r²
where
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²
m is the mass of planet
r is the radius of planet

So, if they have the same a:

m₁/r₁² = m₂/r₂²
So, if m₁ = m and r₂ = 2r₁,
m/r₁² = m₂/(2r₁)²
m₂ = 4m

<em>Thus, the answer is D.</em>
