Answer: D.) increasing in distance from the earth

Explanation:

The <u>Doppler shift</u> is related to the Doppler effect and refers to the change in a wave perceived frequency (or <u>wavelength=color</u>) when the emitter of the waves, and the observer move relative to each other.

From there, it is deduced that the farther the object is, the more redshifted it is in its spectrum. For example, <u>as a galaxy moves away from the Earth, its espectrum turns towards the red and as the galaxy moves toward the Earth, its espectrum turns towards the blue. </u>

It should be noted that this effect bears its name in honor of the Austrian physicist Christian Andreas Doppler, who in 1842 proposed the existence of this effect for the case of light in the stars.

IN THIS FORMULA FOR WATER WHAT DOES THE SUBSCRIPT 2 INDICATE
masha68 [24]
The chemical formular for water is H2O.
The H aspect of the formula stands for hydrogen gas and the subscript 2 which is attached to the H symbol signifies that two atoms of hydrogen are joined together, that is two atom of hydrogen are present.
The chemical formula of water indicates that, two atom of hydrogen react with one atom of oxygen to form one molecule of water.
In chemical formulae, subscripts are normally used to indicate the number of atoms that are present in a molecule.

A roller coaster starts from rest at its highest point and then descends on its (frictionless) track. its speed is 40 m/s when i
Alenkinab [10]

Given that,

Initial velocity , Vi = 0

Final velocity , Vf = 40 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity , a = 9.81 m/s²

Distance can be calculated as,

2as = Vf² - Vi²

2 * 9.81 *s = 40² - 0²

s = 81.55 m

For half height, that is, s = 40.77m

Vf= ??

2as = Vf² - Vi²

2 * 9.81 * 40.77 = Vf² - 0²

Vf² = 800

Vf = 28.28 m/s

Therefore, speed of roller coaster when height is half of its starting point will be 28 m/s.
