Transcribed Image Text:Question 2
Astronomers have taken the spectrum of a new star and
found it to be continuous with several dark lines. The
continuous spectrum has a peak wavelength of 534 nm.
Show all work for the calculation and upload an image of
the work.
a) Using all appropriate Kirckhoff's Laws describe what
the above information tells us about the nature of this
star.
b) What is the temperature of this star?

Question 3
A later observation of the object from question 2 was
made and it was discovered that the dark lines are
shifted by 15 nm to longer wavelengths than expected.
a) What does the shift in the wavelength tell us about
the motion of the object?
b) A second star is observed to have its lines shifted by
20 nm to shorter wavelengths. Which of these two stars
is moving the fastest?
