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 !
Answer:
1058.78 ft/sec
Explanation:
Horizontal Component of Velocity; This is the velocity of a body that act on the horizontal axis. I.e Velocity along x-axis
The horizontal velocity of a body can be calculated as shown below.\
Vh = Vcos∅.......................... Equation 1
Where Vh = horizontal component of the velocity, V = The velocity acting between the horizontal and the vertical axis, ∅ = Angle the velocity make with the horizontal.
Given: V = 1178 ft/sec, ∅ = 26°
Substitute into equation 1
Vh = 1178cos26
Vh = 1178(0.8988)
Vh = 1058.78 ft/sec
Hence the horizontal component of the velocity = 1058.78 ft/sec
