Two things can cause red-shift:
- The rapid motion of an object away from the observer. This is known as the Doppler-effect.
- Expansion of space between the object and the observer.
red shift
The Red Shift was created in 2005-06.
Red shift is the phenomenon where light from an object in space appears to have a longer wavelength, shifting towards the red end of the spectrum. It is caused by the stretching of light waves due to the expansion of the universe, known as the Doppler effect.
The opposite of the red shift is the purple shift.
No, red shift and blue shift are opposite phenomena caused by the Doppler effect. Red shift occurs when an object is moving away from the observer, while blue shift occurs when an object is moving towards the observer. It is not possible for an object to exhibit both red shift and blue shift simultaneously.
Objects moving toward you will have a blue shift in their spectrum and objects moving away from you will have a red shift in their spectrum. This is known as a doppler shift.
Red shift occurs when an object moves away from the observer. So as you are on Earth, it is when objects move away from Earth. (Blue shift as it moves closer.) A star's red shift could be due to losing energy to gravity.
This phenomenon is called red shift.
The red shift depends on the relative motion of the emitting source and receiving detector. Hydrogen per se has no red shift. There is hydrogen with great red shift (in stars in galaxies far away that are moving rapidly away from us).
The compound present in henna that creates the red color is lawsone, also known as hennotannic acid. Lawsone binds to proteins in the skin and hair, resulting in the characteristic reddish-brown color when applied.
The red shift shows the velocity with which an object is moving away from the earth. The red shift of an object is correlated to its distance from the earth and so it is also a measure of the distance.
Red shift does not support the steady state theory.
