If the shift of wavelength of light emitted by a star is towards the violet end of the spectrum,then this shows that the star is

The time period of rotation of the sun is $25$ days and its radius is $7 \times 10^8 \ m$. The Doppler shift for the light of wavelength $6000 \ \mathring{A}$ emitted from the surface of the sun will be ...... $\mathring{A}$.

If a star is moving towards the Earth,then the spectral lines are shifted towards:

The Doppler effect is applicable for

For sound waves,the Doppler formula for frequency shift differs slightly between the two situations:
$(i)$ source at rest; observer moving,and
$(ii)$ source moving; observer at rest.
The exact Doppler formulas for the case of light waves in vacuum are,however,strictly identical for these situations. Explain why this should be so. Would you expect the formulas to be strictly identical for the two situations in case of light travelling in a medium?
