Is there a difference between gravitational redshift and doppler redshift?
I was reading a topic on this subject. At first, the author only talk
about gravitational redshift. Later, he brought in doppler redshift and i
became confused because they cause the same effect. So, is there a
difference between these two and if there is, how are they different ?
