There's a very subtle thing going on here, one that could blow your mind.
Wherever we look in the universe, no matter what direction we look,
we see the light from distant galaxies arriving at our telescopes with
longer wavelengths than the light SHOULD have.
The only way we know of right now that can cause light waves to get
longer after they leave the source is motion of the source away from
the observer. The lengthening of the waves on account of that motion
is called the Doppler effect. (The answer to the question is choice-c.)
But that may not be the only way that light waves can get stretched. It's
the only way we know of so far, and so we say that the distant galaxies
are all moving away from us.
From that, we say the whole universe is expanding, and that right there is
one of the strongest observations that we explain with the Big Bang theory
of creation.
Now: If ... say tomorrow ... a competent Physicist discovers another way
for light waves to get stretched after they leave the source, then the whole
"expanding universe" idea is out the window, and probably the Big Bang
theory along with it !
Now that our mind has been blown, come back down to Earth with me,
and I'll give you something else to think about:
It's true that when we look at distant galaxies, we do see their light
arriving in our telescopes with longer wavelengths than it should have.
And then we use the Doppler effect to calculate how fast that galaxy
is moving away from us. That's all true. Astronomers are doing it
every day. I mean every night.
So here's the question for you to think about ... maybe even READ about:
When the light from a distant galaxy pours into our telescope, and we
look at it, and we measure its wavelength, and we find that the wavelength
is longer than it should be ... how do we know what it should be ? ? ?
Answer:· A model is a description of natural phenomenon that scientists can use to make predictions. A good model is both as accurate as possible and as simple as possible, which makes it not only powerful but also easy to understand. However, no matter how good they are, models will almost always have limitations.

Answer:
ΔE = 37.8 x 10^9 J
Explanation:
The energy required will increased the potential energy and increase the kinetic energy.
As the altitude change is fairly small compared to the earth radius, we can ASSUME that the average gravity will be a good representative
Gravity acceleration at altitude would be 9.8(6400²/8000²) = 6.272 m/s²
G(avg) = (9.8 + 6.272)/2 = 8.036 m/s²
ΔPE = mG(avg)Δh = 1000(8.036)(8e6 - 6.4e6) = 12.857e9 J
The centripetal force at orbit must be equal to the gravity force
mv²/R = mg'
v²/8.0e6 = 6.272
v² = (6.272(8.0e6)) = 50.2e6 m²/s²
The maximum velocity when resting on earth at the equator is about 460 m/s.
The change in kinetic energy is
ΔKE = ½m(vf² - vi²)(1000)
ΔKE = ½(1000)(50.2e6 - 460²) = 25e9 J
Total energy increase is
25e9 + 12.857e9 = 37.8e9 J
