Light years are the distance light can travel in a full year. They are used because there are really big distances in the universe that are easier to measure with a really large form of measurement (light years).
Matter can be many things, but is mostly made of atoms. Atoms are small things that cannot be seen directly, as lights either passes through it or alters it. However, we know that atoms are made of 3 parts, those being the proton, neutron, and electron.
Protons have a positive electromagnetic charge.
Neutrons have no charge.
Electrons have a negative charge equal to the protons positive charge.
Protons and neutrons make up what's called the nucleus, which is orbited by the electrons.
Protons and neutrons also share another thing in common, that being their composition.
Until relatively recently, we thought that these were the smallest particles in the universe, and indestructible. However, modern discoveries have revealed that they are actually made of quarks and gluons.
These are actually indestructible, being part of the group that is elementary particles.
We do not feel the gravitational forces from objects other than the Earth because they are weak.
The correct answer is:
<span>C) The actual frequency of the siren does not change despite appearances.
In fact, Bob will observe an increase in the apparent frequency as the emergency vehicle approaches him, while Jill will observe a decrease in the apparent frequency as the emergency vehicle moves away from him, because of the Doppler effect (the relative velocity between the observer and the source of the sound is changing), but this effect involves the apparent frequency, while the real frequency of the siren will remain the same.</span>
