It is possible to detect Doppler shifts due to light on each side of a rapidly spinning star. Suppose it is seen that a nearby star, relatively stationary to us, is blueshifted in light on one side of the star and redshifted in the light from the other side.

A. 536 nm B. 504 nm C. 530 nm D. 520 nm E. 546 nm F. 514 nm
