RED SHIFT WAVE LAB
CONCLUSION:
1. The waves in front of the finger consist of a shorter wave length.
2. The waves behind the finger consist of a longer wave length.
3. As the finger gets closer towards to the tub, the waves reflect off of the tub edge, which causes the waves to have a shorter wave length, since there is more energy. As the waves go farther away, the energy decreases, which causes there to be a longer wave length.
4. The wave length of the light gets shorter, which causes the color to be blue, and as it goes farther away, the wave lengths become longer, which causes the light to be red.
