Answer:
red shift, indicating that the universe is expanding
Explanation:
Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave (e.g. light, or sound waves) moves relative to an observer; as a result of this relative motion, the wavelength of the wave appears lengthened/shortened to the observer. Two situations can occur:
- The source of the wave is moving towards the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes shorter. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the blue-end of the spectrum (blue-shift)
- The source of the wave is moving away from the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes longer. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the red-end of the spectrum (red-shift)
In our universe, we observe a red-shift for all the distant galaxies: this means that these galaxies are moving away from us, so this is an indication that the universe is expanding.

Answer:
correct answer is C
Explanation:
The time constant of an RC circuit is
τ = RC
so to find the capacitance
C = τ/ R
C = 2.150 / 5.20 10³
C = 4.13 10⁻⁴ F
to find the error we use the worst case
ΔC = |
the absolute value guarantees that we find the worst case, we evaluate the derivatives
ΔC = 1 /R Δτ + τ/R² ΔR
the absolute values of the errors are
Δτ = 0.002 s
ΔR = 0.3 kΩ
we substitute
ΔC = 0.002 /5.20 10³ + 2.150/(5.20 10³)² 0.3 10³
ΔC = 3.8 10⁻⁷ + 1.74 10⁻⁵
ΔC = 1.77 10⁻⁵ F
the uncertainty or error must be expressed with a significant figure
ΔC = 2 10⁻⁵ F
the percentage error is
Er% =
Er% =
Er% = 4.8%
the correct answer is C
