Which of these would be a good model to demonstrate the fact that the galaxies are moving apart as the universe is expanding?

Physics

Answer: Option A: The spots on the balloon move away as the balloon is inflated.

one of the scientific models describes the galaxies are moving apart as the universe is expanding. This expansion theory came from the observation of red-shifted spectrum from all the directions indicating that the galaxies are moving away.  This can be understood from the inflated balloon. Initially spots can be marked using a colored pen on the balloon.On inflating the balloon, it would be noticed that the spots on the balloon move away. Actually the position of the spots won't change, but the distance between the spots would expand. This is a good model to explain the expanding universe. The galaxies are neither moving in any random direction nor moving forward. So, rest of the options are not good models to explain the theory.

How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach venus from the sun, a distance of 1.152 × 108 km?
7nadin3 [17]
Using the precise speed of light in a vacuum (299,792,458 \ \frac{m}{s}), and your given distance of 1.152 * 10^{8} km, we can convert and cancel units to find the answer. The distance in m, using \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km}, is 1.152 * 10^{11} m. Next, for the speed of light, we convert from s to min, using \frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}, so we divide the speed of light by 60. Finally, dividing the distance between the Sun and Venus by the speed of light in km per min, we find that it is 6.405 min.

Calculate the amount of heat (kcal) released when 50.0g of steam at 100*c hits the skin, condenses, and cools to a body temperat
luda_lava [24]
As the steam touches the skin, it undergoes a phase change and releases latent heat due to the phase change. As it reaches equilibrium, it releases sensible heat. We calculate as follows:

Q = latent heat + sensible Heat
Q = 2.26 kJ / g (50.0 g) + 50.0 g ( 4.18 J / g C) (37 C - 100 C) ( 1 kJ / 1000 J)
Q = 99.833 kJ

If each of the charges is increased by two times and the distance between them is also increased by two times, the electromagnet
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer: The force does not change.

Explanation:

The force between two charges q₁ and q₂ is:

F = k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2

where:

k is a constant.

r is the distance between the charges.

Now, if we increase the charge of each particle two times, then the new charges will be: 2*q₁ and 2*q₂.

If we also increase the distance between the charges two times, the new distance will be 2*r

Then the new force between them is:

F = k*(2*q₁*2*q₂)/(2*r)^2 = k*(4*q₁*q₂)/(4*r^2) = (4/4)*k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2 = k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2

This is exactly the same as we had at the beginning, then we can conclude that if we increase each of the charges two times and the distance between the charges two times, the force between the charges does not change.
