A star which is emitting radiation at a wavelength of 5000 is approaching the earth with a velocity of 1.50 x106 m/s. The change in wavelength of the radiation as received on the earth is
A pulse of a wave train travels along a stretched string and reaches the fixed end of the string. It will be reflected back with
a phase change of 1800 with velocity reversed
the same phase as the incident pulse with no reversal of velocity
a phase change of 1800 with no reversal of velocity
the same phase as the incident pulse but with velocity reversed
