QUESTION:

If we witness events occurring on the Moon, where gravitation is weaker than on Earth, would we expect to see a gravitational red shift or a gravitational blue shift? Explain.

ANSWER:

Solution 17E Introduction If the frequency of electromagnetic radiation originates from a source which is in a gravitational field reduces, there will be a gravitational redshift for the electromagnetic radiation. Similarly, if the frequency of electromagnetic radiation originates from a source which is in a gravitational force field increases, there will be a gravitational blueshift for the electromagnetic radiation. Step 1 Here, they have provided that, the event is happening in moon. The gravitational force is weak at moon while comparing it with the
