The distances to the most of these galaxies estimated from their red shifts and the application of Hubble's Law.

<h3>What is Hubble's Law?</h3>

The discovery in physical cosmology that galaxies are travelling away from Earth at rates proportionate to their distance is known as Hubble's law, often referred to as the Hubble-Lemaître law or Lemaître's law. In other words, they are travelling away from Earth more quickly the more away they are. The redshift of the galaxies—a shift in the light they produce toward the red end of the visible spectrum—has been used to calculate their velocities.

IM SOO CONFUSED PLS HELP!! The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by ____ Atomic Mass unit
nevsk [136]

Answer:

option a.

Explanation:

We can think of an atom as a nucleus (where the protons and neutrons are) and some electrons orbiting it.

We also know that the mass of an electron is a lot smaller than the mass of a proton or the mass of an electron.

So, if all the protons and electrons of an atom are in the nucleus, we know that most of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus of that atom.

Then we define the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Such that the mass of a proton (or a neutron) is almost equal to 1u

Then if we define A as the total number of protons and neutrons, and each one of these weights about 1u

(where u = atomic mass unit)

Then the weight of the nucleus is about A times 1u, or:

A*1u = A atomic mass units.

Then the correct option is:

The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by __1__ Atomic Mass unit.

option a.

A 55 newton force applied on an object moves the object 10 meters in the same direction as the force. What is the value of work
kifflom [539]

Answer: Option D: 5.5×10²Joules

Explanation:

Work done is the product of applied force and displacement of the object in the direction of force.

W = F.s = F s cosθ

It is given that the force applied is, F = 55 N

The displacement in the direction of force, s = 10 m

The angle between force and displacement, θ = 0°

Thus, work done on the object:

W = 55 N × 10 m × cos 0° = 550 J = 5.5 × 10² J

Hence, the correct option is D.

Which statement accurately describes a relationship between parts of the
sammy [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

C. There are trillions of galaxies in the universe.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A. is wrong as nebulae are found inside galaxies and inside the universe, not inside stars.

B. is wrong because there are trillions of galaxies in the universe, not the latter.

D. The solar system consists of the eight planets, the Sun, comets, meteors, dwarf planets, and is inside the Milky Way galaxy and thus cannot have galaxies inside it.
