Answer:

The stars are moving away from us.

Explanation:

The observed wavelengths of hydrogen transition for stars A and B (660.0 nm and 666 nm respectively) are greater than that observed in the laboratory (656.2 nm). The observed long wavelengths for the stars means that the light from the stars is red-shifted.

According to the Doppler effect, red-shifted light means that the source is moving a way from the observer; therefore, we arrive at the conclusion that the stars A and B are moving away from us.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Speed

Explanation:

If a vehicle hit any other object then its speed will slow down or some time the vehicle will stop its depends on the force exerted by other object on the vehicle.

The change in speed of vehicle is due to momentum because momentum is always conserved. So to conserve the momentum the speed of the vehicle decreases because after hitting the overall mass is increases.
