  2. Doppler effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect

    The Doppler effect (also Doppler shift) is the change in the frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the source of the wave. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The Doppler effect is named after the physicist Christian Doppler , who described the phenomenon in 1842.

  5. Relativistic Doppler effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_Doppler_effect

    The relativistic Doppler effect is the change in frequency, wavelength and amplitude [1] of light, caused by the relative motion of the source and the observer (as in the classical Doppler effect, first proposed by Christian Doppler in 1842 [2]), when taking into account effects described by the special theory of relativity.

  6. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

    Doppler Effect: Change of wavelength and frequency caused by motion of the source. The formula for radar Doppler shift is the same as that for reflection of light by a moving mirror. [3] There is no need to invoke Albert Einstein's theory of special relativity, because all observations are made in the same frame of reference. [4]

  7. Time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

    When unspecified, "time dilation" usually refers to the effect due to velocity. After compensating for varying signal delays resulting from the changing distance between an observer and a moving clock (i.e. Doppler effect), the observer will measure the moving clock as ticking more slowly than a clock at rest in the observer's own reference frame.

  8. If you think Mr. Monopoly wears a monocle or believe you’ve read “The Berenstein Bears” books, you might be experiencing the so-called Mandela Effect, or collective false memory.

  9. N400 (neuroscience) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N400_(neuroscience)

    For example, in the sentence A sparrow is a building, the N400 response to building is more negative than the N400 response to bird in the sentence A sparrow is a bird. In this case, building has a lower cloze probability, and so it is less expected than bird. However, if negation is added to both sentences in the form of the word not (i.e.
