The "red shift" (or frequency decrease) indicates that an object is moving away from you. It works just like a radar speed trap.
When applied to stars it shows that some are moving away and others are getting closer. BUT when applied to galaxies ALL (except for a few close neighbors) are moving away ... and the farther away they are, the faster they're going.
The redshift deals with what is known as the Doppler effect. When an object moves toward you, the wavelengths of light reflected or emitted by it become shorter, resulting in a blueshift. If the object is moving away from you the wavelength of light becomes longer, resulting in a redshift. Observations of the universe show that almost every galaxy is redshifted and therefore moving away from us. The farther the galaxy is the faster it moves. The only conclusion can be that the universe is expanding.
The frequency changes when an object - such as a star - moves away from us, or towards us. If the object moves away from us, the frequency (as observed by us) decreases. If it moves towards us, the frequency increases.
Doppler shift is towards red hence named as red shift. This indicates that the galaxies move away from one another. So expanding universe is predicted. Hence big bang theory!

Doppler's effect does not happen when the observer is moving towards the source because unlike the source when observer moves forward the waves are not compressed and they pass the observer without being compressed and since the doppler effect is due to the Change in wavelength of the wave, it fails to occur.
This is called the Doppler effect. Because air is compressible, that causes sound waves to lengthen the further you get from the source. This is also how radar speed detection works. The device calculates the rate of the Doppler shift to determine the speed of the car or other object being measured.
The most important piece of evidence that shows that the universe is in motion is the Doppler Effect, also termed the red shift. This basically means that objects headed away the observer will have their light bent toward the "red" (lower frequency) side of the light spectrum while objects headed toward the observer will have their light bent toward the "blue" (higher frequency) end of the spectrum. By using the Doppler Effect we are able to that the majority of the universe is in motion, expanding outward.
Doppler |ˈdäplər|Doppler, Johann Christian (1803-53), Austrian physicist. In 1842, he discovered what is now known as the Doppler effect. Doppler effectnoun Physicsan increase (or decrease) in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move toward (or away from) each other. The effect causes the sudden change in pitch noticeable in a passing siren, as well as the redshift seen by astronomers.
No. The Doppler shift tells us if the object is moving toward us or away, and how fast. But it says nothing at all about whether, or how fast, the object is moving to the side. Doppler tells us about the part of the velocity that is TOWARD or AWAY. It says nothing about its velocity left, right, up or down.
If there is no observable Doppler shift, then the star is probably not moving very fast. This refers to the component of the star's movement toward us, or away from us - the "sideways" part of the movement can't be determined by the Doppler effect.
Doppler effect. This effect causes the wavelengths of light from a star to appear shorter (blueshifted) as it moves towards the Earth and longer (redshifted) as it moves away, providing valuable information about the star's motion in space.
No
No. Doppler effect measures relative speed toward or away from the observer, there is no effect on the star itself.
The Doppler effect is useful for and used for detecting objects velocity. The Doppler radar tells whether the object is heading toward or away from you or perpendicular to you.
By using the Doppler effect
yes
Answer:Frequency - for nova net
doppler effect
They can do so by examining the light from the star. Doppler shift can indicate this
The Doppler effect. Good luck with your homework.
How close and far something is from you.
