You record the spectrum of a star and find that a calcium absorption line has an observed wavelength of 394.0 nm. This calcium absorption line has a rest wavelength of 393.3 nm. What is the approximate radial velocity of this star?

radial velocity = 0.533 × m/s

Explanation:

given data

observed wavelength = 394.0 nm

rest wavelength = 393.3 nm

solution

we get here radial velocity  by the Doppler effect of light that is

    ......................1

v =    

put here value

v = \frac{c \times (\lambda ' - \lambda  }{\lambda}

v = \frac{3 \times 10^8  \times (394 - 393.3}{393.3}

v = 533943.55

v = 0.533 × m/s

r = ρ x length / area  

ρ = r x area / length  

ρ is in ohm-meters  

in basic units, it is m³kg/s³a²  

i think this is it.

distance = 150m

displ = root (50 ^2 + 100^2)

root(2500+10000)

root 125000
