The only thing we know of so far that can shift light to longer wavelengths is the "Doppler" effect. If the source and the observer are moving apart, then the observer sees wavelengths that are longer than they should be. If the source and the observer are moving toward each other, then the observer sees wavelengths that are shorter than they should be. It works for ANY wave ... sound, light, water etc. The trick is to know what the wavelength SHOULD be. If you know that, then you can tell whether you and the source are moving together or apart, and you can even tell how fast. If the lines in a star"s spectrum are at wavelengths that are too long, then from everything we know right now, the star and Earth are moving apart.

Science Seminar Question: Why did Vehicle 2 fall off the cliff in Claire's test of the collision scene but Vehicle 2 did not fal

Answer:

In the film Ice word Revenge, vehicle 2 did not fall of the cliff because, $Weight_{vehicle 1} < Weight_{vehicle 2}$ but in Claire's test, vehicle 2 off the cliff because $Weight_{vehicle 1} \geq Weight_{vehicle 2}$

Explanation:

In Claire's test, the weight of vehicle 1 is either equal to or greater than the weight of vehicle 2, so it was sufficient to push it down the cliff. In the film Ice word revenge, the weight of vehicle 1 is less than the weight of vehicle 2, it is not sufficient to make it fall off the cliff ( Note: Looking exactly the same in the movie, as Claire claimed, does not mean they have the same mass). Therefore if Claire wants a collision that will not make the vehicle 2 fall off the cliff, he should collide it with a vehicle of lesser mass/weight.
