What is the name of the phenomenon that causes observed light from a star to change its wavelength?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: This is called the Doppler effect, where waves shift frequency and wavelength as the source travels towards you (higher frequency, shorter wavelength) or away from you (lower frequency, longer wavelength)

Explanation:

hoped this helped have a good day :)

What are some climate facts

aleksley [76]

The greenhouse effect is a warming effect caused by certain gases that retain heat from sunlight. Without such gases, the average surface temperature of the Earth would be below freezing, and as explained by the Encyclopedia of Environmental Science, “life, as we know it, would not exist.”

The global warming debate is centered upon whether added greenhouse gases released by human activity will overheat the Earth and cause harmful effects.</span><span>

Sound exits a diffraction horn loudspeaker through a rectangular opening like a small doorway. Such a loudspeaker is mounted out

blondinia [14]

Answer:

$\theta = 20.98 degree$

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the sound is given as

$v = 332 + 0.6 t$

now at t = 273 k = 0 degree

$v = 332 m/s$

so we have

$a sin\theta = N\lambda$

$a sin\theta = N(\frac{v_1}{f})$

now when temperature is changed to 313 K we have

$t = 313 - 273 = 40 degree$

now we have

$v = 332 + (0.6)(40)$

$v_2 = 356 m/s$

$a sin\theta' = N(\frac{v_2}{f})$

now from two equations we have

$\frac{sin19.5}{sin\theta} = \frac{332}{356}$

so we have

$sin\theta = 0.358$

$\theta = 20.98 degree$

An Austin volleyball player bumps a 5 kg ball into the air. It reaches a height of 2.8 meters. How fast was the ball going as it

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

v = 7.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass if a volleyball, m = 5 kg

The ball reaches a height of 2.8 m

We need to find how fast the ball is going as it bumped into the air. Ket the velocity is v. Using the conservation of energy to find it as follows :

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.8} \\\\=7.4\ m/s$

So, the required speed is 7.4 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (b).

Why might a balloon, that is inflated almost to its capacity, pop or explode on an extremely warm day?

REY [17]

On an extremely warm day, the balloon might pop because gases expand the hotter they get, and due to its temperature it is likely to pop if it is, indeed, nearly, if not completely, filled to its capacity. I hope this helps, have a nice day!
