The shifting of the observed wavelength of light due to the motion of the source toward or away from the observer is called the _____________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

doppler effect

Explanation:

When the relative motion of two bodies results in the wavelength becoming shorter this means that the bodies are getting closer. This is known as blue shift.

When the relative motion of two bodies results in the wavelength becoming longer this means that the bodies are getting farther. This is known as red shift.

Collectively this phenomenon is known as the Doppler effect.

What kind of relationship between the independent and dependent variable does this graph illustrate? A. inverse proportion
B. linear
C. quadratic
D. direct proportion

Answers

Answer:

C. quadratic

Explanation:

Linear graphs are straight lines, and direct proportion graphs are lines that pass through the origin.

Inverse proportion graphs have vertical and horizontal asymptotes passing through the origin.

Quadratic graphs are parabolas.

The graph shown is a parabola, or quadratic.

A. 0°C

Your answer is going to be 0 degrees Kelvin!

This is really sneaky. Of course it's going to be "Absolute Zero" ... the bottom of the Kelvin scale ... but what in the world is the difference between choice-C and choice-D ? ?

On the Kelvin scale, just to be different I guess, the unit of temperature is not called "the degree" Kelvin. On that scale, the unit is called "the Kelvin", and the temperature is called 'so many' "Kelvins".

So the correct choice is D ... "zero Kelvins".

You cant see the cells in your body because most of them are very small true or false?

Answers

Answer: The given statement is True.

Cells are the basic fundamental, structural, and functional unit of all living organisms.

Cells are the microscopic structures, which are responsible for performing all the functions of life. Thus, cells present in the body of living organisms can not be visible through naked eyes.

Therefore, the given statement is True.

True you can't see them because most of them are way too small to see.
