What is a use of examining light spectra?
One use of light spectra has an application in astronomy. When looking at distant objects like galaxies, you can tell if they are moving away from you or closer to you. If the spectral light appears blue (blue-shift) it means that the object is moving toward you, if the spectral light is red (red-shift) it means that the object is moving away from you. Another astronomy application is to look at the light from a star through a spectrum and by doing so you can figure out the chemical composition of the star just by the color of its spectrum.
What illustrates an energy transfer between atmosphere and hydrosphere?
polar ice reflecting sun's light back toward space.polar ice reflecting Sun's light back toward space
What light is a good example of a fire?
Fire is a good example of NATURAL light
How are waves measured?
It depends, if you mean light or sound waves, for example, there are a variety of factors to be measured: The length of a wave from peak to peak is represented with lambda. You can also measure velocity of a wave (how fast and in what direction it is moving). Frequency of light effects the color of the light, and frequency of sound effects its pitch.
Is light an example of matter?
No, light is not an example of matter. It is an example of electromagnetic waves. However, it is considered that light is composed of photons (massless particles) and it is applied to it some theories of matter.
Which of these is an example of a biological clock in a plant?
moving toward light
What happen if a light move closer to the object?
The redshift that scientists speak of in stars, indicating that they are moving away, is complemented by a shift toward the blue in the spectrum by light moving toward a viewer.
Objects that are moving away from us give off what light and objects that aremoving toward us gives what light?
Due to the doppler effect, objects moving toward us will be slightly more red than what they actually are, and objects moving away will be slightly more blue. Think of it like a siren coming toward you and moving away from you. If it is moving toward you, it will be slightly higher than what it really sounds like. If it is moving away it will have a slightly lower pitch.
A plant growing toward a light is an example of?
umm im pretty sure its responce :) hop i helped A plant growing toward light is an example of positive phototropism.
An apparent shift in the wavelength of light emmited by a light source moving toward or away from an observer is known as?
The Doppler Effect.
A plant grows toward the light The plants action is an example of?
its an response :)
What does it mean when the color of an object in the universe shifts toward red?
It is the color of the light shift. either red or blue, from an object, not the object itself, that determines if it is moving away( RED) from us or moving toward us (BLUE).
What is taxis in flagella?
Taxis is the directional movement of the flagella("moving tail"). So... the direction of movement by the prokaryotic cell is described in the taxis. Example: positive phototaxis- positive(toward) photo(light)taxis(movement).
If you studied the light from the stars using a spectroscope and found that there was no blue shift what would that mean?
It would mean that the stars are not moving toward you.They could still be moving at appreciable speed across your line of vision,but just not toward you.
How does the speed of light in the fiber compare with the speed of light in the outer covering?
The speed of light in the fibre is greater. As a result, light moving toward the outer covering is refracted back towards the core.
How does the speed of light in the fiber compare with the speede of light in the outer covering?
The speed of light in the fibre is greater. As a result, light moving toward the outer covering is refracted back towards the core.
When a plants stem bends toward light it is said to be an example of photsynthesis or evaporation?
Phtosynthesis
