What else can I help you with?
Would an object have a greater gravitational pull closer or farther from earth?
An object have greater gravitational pull closer from earth. As we get farther from earth, the gravitational pull becomes weaker. That is why objects sufficiently away from the earth do not fall on it.
Does a red shift means that are moving closer to earth?
No. A red shift indicates that the object is moving away from the earth.
Do galaxies farther go faster than ones closer?
Yes, in general, galaxies that are farther away from us tend to be moving away at faster speeds. This is due to the expansion of the universe, where the farther apart two objects are, the faster they appear to be moving away from each other. This phenomenon is described by Hubble's law.
Is the north star closer to the earth than the moon?
No, the North Star (Polaris) is much farther from the Earth than the Moon. The Moon is approximately 238,855 miles away from Earth, while Polaris is about 434 light-years away.
Is the moon currently coming closer to earth?
The moon is very, very slowly moving farther from the Earth, at a rate of 3.8 centimeteres per year. This may have a small effect on tides.
Is it true that the farther away from Earth a galaxy is the slower it is moving?
incorrect. The farther away from earth a galaxy is, the faster it is moving.
What are the caueses of climate change?
You know, being closer to the sun as it revolves around the earth, searing heat and blinding sunshine, earth moving farther away from the sun, etc.
Would an object have a greater gravitational pull closer or farther from earth?
An object have greater gravitational pull closer from earth. As we get farther from earth, the gravitational pull becomes weaker. That is why objects sufficiently away from the earth do not fall on it.
How do you determine whether a star is moving closer or farther away from us?
To determine whether a star is moving closer or farther away, astronomers often use the Doppler effect, which causes the light from a moving star to shift in wavelength. If the star is moving closer, its light appears blue-shifted, meaning the wavelengths are compressed. Conversely, if the star is moving away, its light appears red-shifted, with the wavelengths stretched. By analyzing the spectrum of the star's light, astronomers can measure this shift and determine its motion relative to Earth.
Why does horizon move away if you go closer to it?
The horizon appears to move away as you approach it due to the curvature of the Earth. As you get closer to the horizon, you are able to see farther around the curve of the Earth, causing it to appear as though it is moving further away. This effect is more noticeable in flat, open landscapes.
Does the size of an object appear to change as the observer moves closer to or farther away from the object?
Yes, the size of an object can appear to change as the observer moves closer to or farther away from the object due to perspective. When an observer moves closer to an object, it may appear larger, and when moving farther away, it may appear smaller.
Does a red shift means that are moving closer to earth?
No. A red shift indicates that the object is moving away from the earth.
Over millions of years is the Earth getting closer to the Sun or farther away from the Sun?
The Earth is getting very, very slightly farther away from the Sun over time, due to tidal forces.
Do sound waves move closer or farther away from a vibrating object?
farther away
Do galaxies farther go faster than ones closer?
Yes, in general, galaxies that are farther away from us tend to be moving away at faster speeds. This is due to the expansion of the universe, where the farther apart two objects are, the faster they appear to be moving away from each other. This phenomenon is described by Hubble's law.
If you wanted to enjoy longer periods of daylight in the summertime would you move closer to the equator or farther away from it?
You would move farther away from the equator because of the tilt of Earth's axis.
What are sesons caused by?
The seasons are caused by the tilt of the earth relative to the sun. The earths axis is tilted and not perfectly parallel with the sun's axis. This means that as the earth circles the sun half the planet will be closer to the sun then the other. When half is closer that is summer. (closer = hotter). When it is farthest away that is winter (father = colder). Spring and fall are the transition times in between. When the tilt is moving away from the sun it is getting farther and farther away and getting colder...(fall). When it gets closer then it gets warmer leading to spring. Food for thought....when its summer in the USA..its winter in Australia
