The emission spectra you obtained from a star show a hydrogen spectrum that is shifted toward the blue end of the electromagneti

c spectrum compared to the hydrogen spectrum you obtained from the lab. Is the star moving toward Earth, away from Earth, or is there not enough information provided to determine its motion?

Answer:

The correct option is;

The star is moving toward Earth.

Explanation:

The shifting of the wavelength of light wave toward the blue end of the electromagnetic spectrum is termed blue shift.

A blue-shift of an electromagnetic wave corresponds to the wavelength decrease of the wave, which is equivalent increase in energy, resulting in an increase in the observed frequency of the wave.

Astronomers make use of the shifting of the wavelength of a wave to understand the relative motion of galaxies.

The wavelength of an approaching electromagnetic ave shifts towards the blue end of the electromagnetic spectrum because the wavelength is shorter.

The opposite of phenomenon is red-shift.

Who discovered natural magnet for the first time?​
andrew-mc [135]
Answer: Magnes



Explanation: Magnes found that the nails and buckle of his sandals and the tip of his staff were attracted to the rock he was standing on. He dug up the Earth to find lodestones. Lodestones contain magnetite, a natural magnetic material Fe3O4.

The slow coning pattern of the spin axis of the Earth's precession will move the end of this axis in a complete circle in a peri
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

26000 years

Explanation:

Precession describes the angular motion of the Earth's body. Since the attitude of telescopes relative to the Earth's body can be controlled with high accuracy, and telescopes can measure the direction of incoming light also with high accuracy, the motion of Earth is under permanent high precision monitoring. Thus the basic numerical descriptor of precission, an angular rate of 5029.0966 seconds of arc per Julian century, traditionally denoted p (for precession) is a measured value from observed coordinate changes of thousands of stars over, say, two centuries. The understanding of this value in terms of forces acting on an oblate Earth from the Moon is well understood so that an extrapolation back and forth over a few full cycles contains little uncertainties. Of course, you can find details on the coordinate transformations mentioned above (the direct observational effect of precession) on the net. I was surprised to see that the Wikipedia article on precession covers the astronomical aspect very poorly. You thus better look for other sources.

In major league baseball, the pitcher's mound is 60 feet from the batter.If a pitcher throws a 89 mph fastball, how much time el
lianna [129]
<span>Hitting can be broken down into three segments; SEE, REACT, SWING. You watch the ball in the pitcher's hand during the windup and you watch the ball leave the pitcher's hand when it is thrown and you watch the spin of the ball as it comes towards the plate. That is SEE. You determine what the pitch is (fastball, curveball, etc.), you determine where the ball is going to go and you determine whether it is headed towards an area that you think you can get good wood on it. That is REACT. You swing if you like the pitch or don't swing if you don't like the pitch. That is SWING. It doesn't make any difference whether you are playing with a tennis ball or a golf ball or a baseball. The theory and mechanics are the same. So, to answer your question I would say the more you practice the better you will be, regardless of the type of ball you use to practice with.</span>
