Answer: The Transit method</h2>
Detecting extrasolar planets by direct observation (with a telescope) is a complicated task. This is because any planet constitutes an extremely dim light source compared to the star around which it orbits.
So, to detect this extremely dim source is quite difficult due to the glare of the star's light that dulls it.
In this sense, scientists and astronomers have made several methods to find these extrasolar planets, among which the most successful has been the transit method.
This method is based on <u>astronomical transit</u>, a phenomenon in which a body (a planet in this case) passes in front of a larger one (the star), blocking (eclipsing) its vision to some extent.
It should be noted that this is the method currently used in the search for extrasolar planets. Space agencies such as ESA (Europe) and NASA (USA) have put into orbit satellites with extremely sensitive photometric sensors to observe even the smallest variations of intensity of a star due to the passage of a planet.

F=X.F=mxq. 3. 1 N/kg=0.5kg g=9.80
Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
The apparent change in the frequency of light due to the relative motion between the source and the observer is called Doppler's effect.
When the source is moving towards the observer which is at rest, the apparent frequency increases and if the observer is moving away the frequency of sound decreases.
It occurs for both light and sound.
So, to explain the blue shift of light in the universe is due to the Doppler's effect of light.
Answer:
• riding on a Ferris wheel whose entrance and exit are the same
• walking around the block, starting from and ending at the same house
• running exactly one lap around a racetrack
Explanation:
Displacement simply means the.change in position of an object. In a situation whereby the initial and final position are thesame, the displacement will be zero.
The statements that describe a situation with a displacement of zero include:
• riding on a Ferris wheel whose entrance and exit are the same
• walking around the block, starting from and ending at the same house
• running exactly one lap around a racetrack
