schepotkina [342]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The Nanjing massacre occurred between December 1937 – January 1938.

Explanation:

Prince Yasuhiko Asaka, uncle in law to the emperor of Japan, was sent to lead Japanese forces against the Chinese during the Second Sino-Japanese War. After being defeated in Shanghai, the main Chinese army retreated to the countryside to give them an advantage over Japan. This left the city of Nanjing with limited soldiers and their civilians. The city was taken by the Japanese in one day. However, the occupation lasted 6 weeks. It is estimated that between 20,000 – 80,000 women were raped and around 300,000, mainly civilians, were killed.

How did Israel respond to the PLO’s use of terrorist tactics during the 1970s? by granting Palestinians limited self-government
maxonik [38]
Israel responded by what is termed here 'terrorist' tactics of the PLO in the 1970's by raiding PLO bases in neighboring Arab countries. It must be realized historically that Palestine used to belong to the Arab Palestinians ie it was their country and it was stolen by the British colonialists and sold to the rich Zionists for their so-called homeland. If the Israel govt really wanted to live in peace with the Palestinians and be slightly modest that they took away their country, then they wouldn't provoke them with settlements in the little land left that the Palestinians have on the Westbank and they would live in peace and harmony with them and Israel could have both Arabs and Jews living in harmony.

From earth, a hydrogen source releases an emission line that has a wavelength of 410nm. observations have been made for the same
lubasha [3.4K]

The explanation for the differences in wavelength observed from earth and a distant star with a shift towards the red end of the spectrum is the Redshift- Doppler effect.

<h3>What is the Doppler effect?</h3>

The Doppler effect is the difference that occur between the frequency of a wave in relation to observer from the wave source.

The wavelength changes with change in the frequency.

<h3>How does the Doppler effect explain the redshift?</h3>

As an object moves away from Earth, the waves moves to the red end of the electromagnetic spectrum and becomes elongated. This results to the increase in wavelength.

Therefore, the explanation for the differences in wavelength observed from earth and a distant star with a shift towards the red end of the spectrum is the redshift-Doppler effect.
