red shift
How do you know that quasars are not just nearby stars?
The light from quasars - all quasars - is shifted far to the red side of the spectrum. This means that they are moving away from us, at a very high rate of speed. They cannot be "nearby", for that, and a lot of other sound, scientific reasons.
What size does an object have to be in order to view an observable red shift from a distant object in space?
Objects must be very large and moving at high speeds relative to an observer in order for their light to exhibit a measurable red shift due to the Doppler effect. This is commonly observed in astronomical objects such as galaxies and quasars located far away from us in space.
When was The Red Shift created?
The Red Shift was created in 2005-06.
What is the opposite of the red shift?
The opposite of the red shift is the purple shift.
What are some physical characteristics of quasars?
They're elliptical shaped and the typically have a red center because of all the red giants that form in this type of galaxy.
Can a red shift and a blue shift exist on the same object at the same time?
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.
Are distant objects in space called quarks or quasars?
quasars
What is the shift in the light of a galaxy toward the red wavelength called?
This phenomenon is called red shift.
What is the red shift of hydrogen?
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).
What does red shift show?
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.
How does red-shift support the steady state theory?
Red shift does not support the steady state theory.
