As it drives past you, the pitch changes - this isn't because the paramedics decide to change the pitch every time they drive past you to confuse you but a result of the Doppler effect. When an object is moving, the sound waves become squashed in front of the object, hence increasing the frequency of the sound waves and leading to a higher pitch than it really is. Similarly, the waves to the back of the object become more spread out. This decreases the frequency of the waves and the sound becomes lower in pitch.



Light is also a wave and affected by the Doppler effect. When stars and galaxies are moving at incredible speeds, this is easy to detect. Instead of pitch however, the thing that changes is the color of the light waves (affected by the frequency). If it is red-shifted (lower than normal frequency), then it is moving away. If it is blue-shifted (higher than normal frequency), it is moving towards us.Explain how star motion is detected by the Doppler Effect.

The question is really whether you intend to better yourself by learning how to learn, or to continue to cheat and remain an ignorant, useless simpleton forever.Explain how star motion is detected by the Doppler Effect. Provide a diagram to help you explain the Doppler E?since this forum does not support graphics, your question cannot be answered.
