What would be evidence of a galaxy moving towards earth?

A blueshift in the galaxy's spectrum - that is, the frequency of the light, as observed by us, is greater than when it was emitted.


Does the colour of a galaxy reflect its distance away from the earth?

No, however, we can determine whether a galaxy is moving towards or away from us, by looking at the shift in its spectrographic analysis. There are "red shifts" and "blue shifts" in spectrographic results. "Blue shifts" indicate that a galaxy is moving towards us, because the wavelength of the light emitted by the galaxy is compressed, causing it to shift to the blue end of the colour spectrum. "Red shifts" indicate that a galaxy is moving away from us, because the wavelength of the light emitted by the galaxy is being stretched towards the red end of the colour spectrum.


When the absorption line of a galaxy shift toward the blue end of the spectrum it means that the galaxy is?

It means the heading towards us, red means it is moving away from us.


When the absorption lines of a galaxy shifts toward the blue end of the spectrum it means that that the galaxy?

It means the heading towards us, red means it is moving away from us.


How do you use spectral lines to determine if a galaxy is moving towards earth or away from earth?

The spectral lines move towards one direction, or towards the other direction, depending on the relative speed.


The Andromeda galaxy show is a blue shift in its spectra What does this tell us about its motion relative to the earth and the rest of the soloar system?

The blue shift in the spectrum of the Andromeda galaxy indicates that it is moving towards the Earth and the rest of the solar system. This is because the light waves from the galaxy are compressed as it moves closer, causing the wavelength to shift towards the blue end of the spectrum.


How does imaging determine how fast a distant galaxy is moving away from Earth.?

The star's spectrum is analyzed; certain lines in the spectrum, which have a fixed position, will change their position when the object moves away from us or towards us.


What direction are observed galaxies moving from your galaxy?

Away.

How is wavelength of the light waves received is affected by the movemenet of a galaxy?

The wavelengths of light waves would go through either a blue shift or a redshift depending on whether the galaxy is moving toward the receiver or away. A redshift occurs when the light source, a galaxy, is moving away from the receiver. The light will shift towards the red end of the spectrum. If the galaxy is moving towards the receiver, the light will shift towards the blue end of the spectrum. This effect is caused by the Doppler effect because the wavelengths are either being squished together or stretched apart due to velocity. It effects other waves as well but the moving towards red or blue can't be applied to those. Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift for the other wavelengths. That and my junior year's physics class was my source.


Why is the light blue shifted in the Andromeda galaxy?

The light from the Andromeda galaxy is blue-shifted because the galaxy is moving towards us due to the effects of gravity and the expansion of the universe. This motion causes the wavelengths of light emitted by the galaxy to appear slightly compressed towards the blue end of the spectrum.


What is the spectrum of an object that shows blueshift?

The object moving directly towards earth
