The star is moving away from our planet. To elaborate on the Doppler shift: This phenomenon, related to the Doppler effect, is the variation in the perceived frequency or wavelength (color) of a wave when the source of the waves and the observer are in motion relative to one another. Consequently, it can be inferred that as an object recedes, it exhibits more redshift in its spectrum. For instance, when a star moves away, its spectral lines shift towards the red end of the spectrum, whereas if it approaches Earth, the spectral lines move towards blue. Given that the peak wavelength is roughly 650 nm—which is associated with red—it can be concluded that the star is indeed moving away from Earth.
b ) The first lens is a concave lens with a focal length of f₁ = - 12 cm and an object distance of u = - 20 cm. Using the lens formula, 1 / v - 1 / u = 1 / f, we get 1 / v + 1 / 20 = -1 / 12. This leads to 1 / v = - 1 / 20 - 1 / 12, which simplifies to 1 / v = -0.05 - 0.08333, yielding v = -7.5 cm. Consequently, the first image is formed before the first lens, near the object side, which becomes the object for the second lens with a distance of 16.5 cm from the second lens. c ) For the second lens, object distance is u = -16.5 cm, and focal length f₂ = + 12 cm (convex lens). Using the lens formula leads to 1 / v + 1 / 16.5 = 1 / 12, and this results in 1 / v = 1 / 12 - 1 / 16.5, which simplifies to 1 / v = 0.08333 - 0.0606. Finally, we find v = 44 cm (approximately). This image will be formed on the other side of the convex lens, which is 53 cm from the first lens. Magnification by the first lens is v / u = -7.5 / -20 = 0.375. For the second lens, it is v / u = 44 / - 16.5 = -2.67. d ) The total magnification becomes 0.375 x - 2.67 = - 1.00125. The height of the final image is then calculated as 2.50 mm x 1.00125 = 2.503 mm. e ) The final image will be inverted compared to the object since the total magnification is negative.
1) The buoyant force acting on an object submerged in a fluid can be described as:

where

indicates the fluid's density,

represents the volume of the fluid displaced, and

signifies the gravitational acceleration.
2) To determine the volume of the displaced fluid, we note that the titanium object is entirely submerged in the fluid (air), thus this volume matches the volume of 1 Kg of titanium, which has a density of

. Using the correlation between density, volume, and mass, we derive

3) We can now revisit the equation in step 1) to compute the buoyant force. Given that the air density is

, this provides us with

4) The weight of 1 Kg of titanium is:

Therefore, the buoyant force is negligible when compared to the weight.
