Explanation :
(1) Big bang : (1) The most accepted theory on the origin of the universe.
This theory shows the expanding of the universe from high density and high-temperature states.
(2) Steady state : (3) All is the same and will always stay the same.
Steady state means that the properties of any system remain the same always.
(3) Oscillating universe : (4) Agrees with the big bang theory but insists the universe expanded much quicker.
Oscillating universe theory is the result of big bang theory.
(4) Inflation Choices : (2) it's like an inflating and deflating balloon that never stops.
In cosmology, cosmic inflation or deflation is just the expanding and contraction of the universe.
So, the statements and the choices are related as:
(1)-(1)
(2)- (3)
(3)-(4)
(4)-(2)
Answer:
The neutron can be found in the nucleus of the atom with the proton.
Answer:
Light waves slow down as they travel from gas to solid.
Explanation:
The speed of light is often quoted with reference to a vacuum. Light travels fastest in a vacuum and in a gas.
When light travels through other media such as solids or liquids, the speed of light is decreased due to absorption and scattering of photons by molecules as well as remissions.
Hence the speed of light decreases from gas to solid.
Answer:
860.6 years.
Explanation:
The parameters given are;
Initial detector activity = 370000 alpha decays per second
Final detector activity = 93000 alpha decays per second
Formula for time to change in activity is given by the following relation;
t₉₃₀₀₀ = 2.72 × 10¹⁰ seconds = 860.6 years.
