The location of those lines would be shifted to a longer wavelength (or lower frequency or energy) -- ie, towards the red part of the visible spectrum. In other words, a red shift.

What shift i the spectrum would there be if a star is moving at right angles to the direction of sight?
No shift at all.
What causes a red shift?
When a light source is receding away from an observer then due to Doppler effect the frequency would appear to fall. Hence the colour would be shifted towards the red end. Hence red shift Same way as the source is apporaching the observer, then frequency would appear to increase and so it moves towards violet. Hence violet shift.
What type of shift in the spectrum would you expect from a star that was moving in the same direction as earth at the same speed of earth?
You would expect no shift in its spectrum. Any shift one way or the other is the result ofmotion either toward or away from Earth. Motion parallel to ours or across our line of sighthas no effect on the observed spectrum of the object.
Does a redshift spectrum always look red?
No. The red shift simply means that the absorption lines of elements such as hydrogen and helium are shifted towards the red end of the spectrum. A very hot star would normally appear blue. If it were relatively near the earth and so receding relatively slowly, the spectrum would still be blueish, rather than red.
How do people know when a star is moving toward or away from the earth?
blue shifted
Who was Joseph von Fraunhofer?
Joseph von Fraunhofer lived from 1787-1826. He became the director of a scientific institute in Germany. He made some of the best telescope lenses, which he was trained to do. He identified the dark absorption lines that are in the solar spectrum. These lines show scientists which chemical elements are in light.
Will bad hoses for transmission make it not shift and go?
Leaky transmission lines would cause the fluid level to drop and eventually cause the transmission not to shift and go.
Why wont your 2001 Chevy shift out of first gear?
You proble need a new Trany I would check you fluids ! Check all lines and plugs for the Trany.
Will a 1997 Dodge truck automatic transmission fit a 1995 Dodge truck?
It would bolt up, but it will not shift. The shift control systems are different.It would bolt up, but it will not shift. The shift control systems are different.
How do you type a haiku on Microsoft 2010?
Just as you would type any other text. Between lines I suggest you use <Shift> + <Enter> to put in a line break (not just <Enter> which would give you a paragraph break)

What is a shift pattern?
A shift pattern is exactly what it sounds like it would be. A shift pattern is a pattern that moves or can be shifted.
Why do you believe a role with extremely varying shift patterns would suit you?

What is the bestway to become shift leader?
To be the best & hardest working shift worker that also assists the Shift Leader. If the current Shift Leader is out sick, who would the shift leader want to replace him/her for that time?
What would be the problem when you cant shift to 4X4 on your Ford Explorer?
Switch, circuit, shift motor

No shift at all.
What would happen if supplementary lines weren't supplementry?
Then they would not be supplementary lines.
