A certain spectral line of hydrogen gas has a wavelength of 434.2 nm when measured in the laboratory. In the spectrum of a particular distant galaxy, this same spectral line has a wavelength of 455.9 nm. In order to demonstrate the learning outcomes fully in this question you must show all your working throughout.
