| Androcles: Androcles wrote: [...] If you are right please cite a study for the claim. My recollection doesn't produce a cite, and neither does my education. Your help would be appreciated. A question: If the velocity of light is proportional to the wavelength wouldn't the frequency be the same for all light? The conservation of energy principle is operative. Wouldn't the frequency for all light be either 0 or 1 Hz? Ralph Hertle |

If you want a study of Doppler shift you can do that for yourself by driving a vehicle past a sound source and listening carefully, but nobody has studied: 'we establish by definition that the "time" required by light to travel from A to B equals the "time" it requires to travel from B to A' -- Idiot Albert Einstein | | Your help would be appreciated. | | A question: | | If the velocity of light is proportional to the wavelength wouldn't the | frequency be the same for all light?

No. The red H-alpha line at 656 nm has a frequency of 300,000,000/656 nm, which is... well, you work the number out on your calculator, I can't be bothered. If you are moving toward or away from the star (as we do every year for most stars except the polar stars) then that frequency cannot change, but the wavelength does. http://www.psi.edu/esp/doppler.jpg However, the frequency you *measure* (if you could) would *appear* to change. In this demonstration : http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...nding_wave.gif there is clearly a frequency and clearly a wavelength, yet the speed is zero. It is up to you to understand how that can be, I cannot think for you. Doppler's equation here is lamba' = lamda (c+v)/c where c is the "at rest" speed of light. |
