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.

Why are a 12 ounce hard seltzer and 1.5 ounces of liquor both standard drinks? alchohol edu
Mars2501 [29]

12 ounce hard seltzer and 1.5 ounces of liquor are standard drinks because they contain the <u>same amount</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>pure alcohol</u>

<h3>What is standard drink?</h3>

This is  a term used to refer to the measure of alcoholic content of drinks  such that the drink should have 14 grams of pure alcohol or 0.6 fluid ounces of pure alcohol. This concept of standard drink is applicable in the United States of America.

The equivalence of a standard drink is 5 percent alcohol as seen in regular beer, 12 percent as seen in wines, and 40 percent as seen in distilled spirits. This measurement in taken by the percentage of the total volume of the beverage. hence the quantity of the drink or beverage may be different as the percentage is what determines the amount of alcohol present

From standard drink chart both drinks has same amount of pure alcohol so they are said to be standard drinks

How is the earth changing??? How would you answer this question at this point???

Scientists have been observing Earth for a long time. They use NASA satellites and other instruments to collect many types of information about Earth's land, atmosphere, ocean and ice. This information tells us that Earth's climate is getting warmer.


Extra:

Extra greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are the main reason that Earth is getting warmer. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane, trap the Sun's heat in Earth's atmosphere.

It's normal for there to be some greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. They help keep Earth warm enough to live on. But too many greenhouse gases can cause too much warming.

The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil increase the amount of CO2 in our air. This happens because the burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO2.

It's important that we monitor CO2 levels, because too much CO2 can cause too much warming on Earth. Several NASA missions have instruments that study CO2 in the atmosphere.
