If light from galaxies is redshifted what can astronomers conclude about galaxies?

That the galaxy is moving away from us.


What can astronomers infer from the fact that other galaxies are moving away from ours?

When examining the red shift of galaxies outside your own every galazy to be moving away the observer this observation supports the big bang theory because it indicates that?

hi i am minakshi and the answer is that when examining the red shifts of galaxies outside our own galaxies to be moving away the observer this observation supports the big bang theory because indicates that every matter of the universe was consentrated at one place and after big bang the universe is expanding.


When astronomers study distant galaxies they notice changes to the waves they observe describe the change to the waves they observe?

Because the universe as a whole is expanding, distant galaxies are moving away from us. As a result, electromagnetic waves emitted by those galaxies experience what is known as a red shift. Their wavelengths get longer.


American astronomer Edwin Hubble later interpreted this discovery as evidence that?

Galaxies are moving away from each other in a constantly expanding universe.

How many galaxies are approaching milky way galaxy and how many are moving away related to the cosmological red shift?

Most galaxies are moving away from us. Only a few galaxies, which are nearby, are moving towards us.


How do galaxies move?

they move by not moving.


Which has a higher frequency a star moving away from earth or towards earth?

I would think that current evidence suggests that the stars moving away from earth, some of them in far distant galaxies moving at unimaginably high speeds, are going much faster than stars moving toward us. The entire Andromeda galaxy is moving toward us and will collide with us in roughly 5 billion years, and it is not moving anywhere near as fast as the distant retreating galaxies.


The fact that the light from distant galaxies is red-shifted suggests that the galaxies are?

Moving away from us
