1.

The apparent wavelength of the light from a star, moving away from the earth, is 0.01% more than its real wave length. The speed of the star with respect to the earth is ……………… .

Answer»

10 km/s
15 km/s
30 km/s
60 km/s

SOLUTION :`(v_(r))/(C) = (Delta LAMBDA)/(lambda)`or `v_(r) = (0.01)/(100) xx 3 xx 10^(8) = 3 xx 10^(4)` m/s = 30 km/s
