The Pacific range is usually referred to the long coast range that is located along the Pacific coast, forming part of the Western Cordillera. It is comprised of mountains such as the Rocky Mountains, the Sierra Nevada and the Columbia mountain.

The Sierra Nevada is one of the major mountain range of the Western Cordillera, which is formed due to the subduction of the Pacific plate below the North American plate. This mountain formed nearly 5 million years back that runs along the eastern side of the state of California.

Thus, the Sierra Nevada Mountains are located in the Pacific range.

From their redshifts, calculate the speed at which each of the galaxies is moving away from us. give your answers in km/s.
wel
The math suggests that for every parsec the rate of moving away is 71 km/s, so when two galaxies are separated by two parsecs we come to 142 km/s speed of moving away from each other. If we take the first light ever (from what is known so far) the cosmic microwave radiation, is 46 billion light-years away from us at all directions, which comes at 4,200 megaparsecs, which comes at 13.7 billion light-years, so it will come to 29,820,000 km/s. It all depends from the distance between the galaxies which is calculated by their type of colour and movement in comparison to other galaxies.
