What happens to white light when it passes through a diffraction grating?

It splits into a spectrum of colors.

Refer to the diagram about the Doppler Effect for sound. What happens to the wavelength and pitch of the sound as the train moves toward the observer?

Wavelength decreases, pitch increases

Wavelength increases, pitch decreases

Wavelength stays the same, pitch stays the same

Wavelength decreases, pitch decreases

What happens to the wavelength and pitch of the sound as the train moves away from the observer?

Wavelength increases, pitch decreases

Wavelength decreases, pitch increases

Wavelength stays the same, pitch stays the same

Wavelength increases, pitch increases

According to the information provided, what does it mean when light is redshifted?

The light is moving away from us

According to the information provided, what does it mean when light is blueshifted?

The light is moving away from us

Refer to the diagram showing 'Normal', 'Red-shifted', and 'Blue-shifted' light spectra. Which one is red-shifted?

The middle spectrum (Red-shifted)

The bottom spectrum (Blue-shifted)

Explain why the pitch heard by observer A is higher than that heard by observer B.

The pitch is higher for observer A because the sound waves are compressed as the car approaches, resulting in a higher frequency due to the Doppler Effect.

The pitch is higher for observer A because the car is moving away from both observers, causing a decrease in frequency.

The pitch is higher for observer A because sound travels faster in the direction opposite to the car's motion.

The pitch is higher for observer A because observer B is wearing earplugs, reducing the frequency heard.

What happened to the light from the Big Bang over time?

It was stretched out over time.

The Cosmic Microwave Background is:

the faint glow of radiation left over from the early universe after the Big Bang

the light emitted by stars in distant galaxies

the heat produced by black holes in space

the energy released during supernova explosions

The Cosmic Microwave Background was discovered by mistake when:

Scientists were trying NOT to detect radio signals and found unexpected noise.

Astronomers were searching for new planets and stumbled upon it.

Physicists were conducting experiments on gravity and noticed it.

Engineers were testing satellite communication and observed it.

The CMB tells us about the conditions of the universe shortly after the Big Bang.

It shows the universe was hot and dense.

It shows the universe was cold and empty.

It shows the universe was filled with stars.

It shows the universe was already formed as it is today.

According to Evidence #3, what does the amount of Hydrogen and Helium in the universe do?

It increases the temperature of planets.

What do we have the most of?

Smaller elements (made by the Big Bang and small stars)

Larger elements (made by supernovae)

Rare elements (found only on Earth)

Artificial elements (created in laboratories)
