At the present time, the only way we know of that light can get shifted
toward the blue end of the spectrum is the Doppler effect ... wavelengths
appear shorter than they should be when the source is moving toward us.
IF that's true in the case of the Andromeda galaxy, it means the galaxy is
moving toward us.
We use the same reasoning to conclude that all the galaxies whose light is red-shifted are moving away from us. That includes the vast majority of all galaxies that we can see, and it strongly supports the theory of the big bang
and the expanding universe.
If somebody ever comes along and discovers a DIFFERENT way that light
can get shifted to new, longer or shorter wavelengths, then pretty much all
of modern Cosmology will be out the window. There's a lot riding on the
Doppler effect !
Upward and downward forces cancel out. Net force is 8 newtons to the right
Answer:
Somatic motor neurons originate in the central nervous system, project their axons to skeletal muscles (such as the muscles of the limbs, abdominal, and intercostal muscles), which are involved in locomotion.
Explanation:
Muscles move on commands from the brain. Single nerve cells in the spinal cord, called motor neurons, are the only way the brain connects to muscles. When a motor neuron inside the spinal cord fires, an impulse goes out from it to the muscles on a long, very thin extension of that single cell called an axon.
Answer:
Explanation:
Here's what we know because it was given to us:
a = -9.8 m/s/s and
time = 3.32 seconds
Here's what we know because we rock physics:
v₀ = 0 (because the object was held still before it was dropped).
Here's the equation that ties all that info together in a single one-dimensional equation:
v = v₀ + at
Filling in and solving for v:
v = 0 + (-9.8)(3.32) and
v = -33m/s
The velocity is negative because the object is moving downwards and up is positive (but you knew that already too!)
