Answer:

m = 69.9 kg

Explanation:

The mass and the weight of an object are two different quantities. Mass is basically the amount of matter that is present in a body. It remains same everywhere in the universe and measured in kilograms.

Weight is basically a force. It is the force by which earth attracts everything towards itself. The weight of an object changes from planet to planet, with the change in value of the gravitational acceleration (g).

Therefore, the relation between mass and weight of an object is given by the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass = ?

W = Weight = 685 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (685 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>m = 69.9 kg</u>

The expansion of the universe has also been compared to the inflation of a balloon. Suppose that before you inflate the balloon,
Alona [7]

Answer:

That the universe (the balloon for this case) is expanding and that is the reason why the galaxies (the dots) appear to move away one from another.

Explanation:

By means of looking at the spectra of galaxies, it can confirm that they are moving away in an accelerated motion.  

Spectral lines will be shifted to the blue part of the spectrum if the source of the observed light is moving toward the observer, or to the red part of the spectrum when it is moving away from the observer (that is known as the Doppler effect). The source in this particular case is represented for each of the galaxies.      

                           

Hence, the redshift represents this shift of the spectral lines to red part in the spectrum of a galaxy or any object which is moving away. That is a direct confirmation of how the universe is in an expanding accelerated motion.

The redshift can be define in analitic way by trought the doppler velocity:

v = c\frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda_{0}}  (1)      

Where \Delta \lambda is the wavelength shift, \lambda_{0} is the wavelength at rest, v is the velocity of the source and c is the speed of light.

v = c(\frac{\lambda_{measured}-\lambda_{0}}{\lambda_{0}})

\frac{v}{c} = \frac{\lambda_{measured}-\lambda_{0}}{\lambda_{0}}  

z = \frac{\lambda_{measured}-\lambda_{0}}{\lambda_{0}} (2)

Where z is the redshift.      

                                           

The ballon example, once that it is inflating, represents how is the universe which it is expanding and that is the reason why the galaxies (the dots) appear to move away one from another.
