If the earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these stars? a. wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted. b. wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted. c. wavelengths measured would be longer than the actual wavelengths emitted. if a star is moving toward us in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these stars? a. wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted. b. wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted. c. wavelengths measured would be longer than the actual wavelengths emitted.
