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 ?
After looking at the transverse waves in the diagram you listed above, the one diagram that does represent the direction of particle X at the instant show in diagram number 3. The direction of the wave motion is up. The correct answer choice will be 3.
Taking ratio of W & w. ≈ 6 . w = 1/6 W. Therefore , Weight of an object on the moon is 1/6 of its weight on the earth.
