Big bang happened about 13.7 billion years ago in our universe.

<h3>Describe the beginning of the universe according to the big bang theory?</h3>

According to the big bang theory, about 13.7 billion years ago, an explosive expansion began, expanding our universe outwards faster than the speed of light.

<h3>Describe the future of the universe according to the flat model?</h3>

According to the flat model, the universe is infinite and will continue to expand forever because the universe is expanding.

<h3>What is cosmic background radiation? </h3>

Cosmic background radiation is a weak radio-frequency radiation that is traveling through outer space in every direction. It is the residual radiation of the big bang, when the universe was very hot.

<h3>How do observations of the cosmic background radiation provide evidence to support the big bang theory? </h3>

The Big Bang theory predicts that the early universe was a very hot place and that as it expands, the gas within it cools. Thus the universe has all over radiation which is called the “cosmic microwave background".

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.95 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d=0.0865 m from

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

kinetic energy = 0.1168 J

Explanation:

From Hooke's law, we know that ;

F = kx

k = F/x

We are given ;

Mass; m = 1.95 kg

Spring stretch; d = x = 0.0865

So, Force = mg = 1.95 × 9.81

k = 1.95 × 9.81/0.0865 = 221.15 N/m

Now, initial energy is;

E1 = mgL + ½k(x - L)²

Also, final energy; E2 = ½kx² + ½mv²

From conservation of energy, E1 = E2

Thus;

mgL + ½k(x - L)² = ½kx² + ½mv²

Making the kinetic energy ½mv² the subject, we have;

½mv² = mgL + ½k(x - L)² - ½kx²

We are given L=0.0325 m

Plugging other relevant values, we have ;

½mv² = (1.95 × 9.81 × 0.0325) + (½ × 221.15(0.0865 - 0.0325)² - ½(221.15 × 0.0865²)

½mv² = 0.62170875 + 0.3224367 - 0.82734979375

½mv² = 0.1168 J

Brut [27]

Answer:

reliability

accuracy

Explanation:

If a reading of a measurement is consistently the same then the measurement is reliable.

If a reading of measurement is close the actual value of the measurement then the reading is accurate.

Here, a stationary tree shows reading 6 mph once and 0 mph another instant. So, neither the reading of a measurement is consistent not the reading of measurement is close the actual value.

Hence, the radar has problems in its reliability and accuracy

The maximum height reached by the ball is 99.2 m

Explanation:

When the ball is thrown straight up, it follows a free fall motion, which is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration ( $g=9.8 m/s^2$ towards the ground). Therefore, we can use the following suvat equation:
