Answer:  The correct answer is :  From the period-luminosity relation for Cepheids, he was able to determine the distance to Andromeda and show that it was far outside the Milky Way Galaxy.

Explanation:  Hubble's law says that the recession velocity of a galaxy is directly proportional to its distance from us. Hubble measured the distance to the Andromeda galaxy by applying the period-luminosity relationship to Cepheid.

Answer:

  F_{y} = ( ρ_fluid g A) y

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved in two parts, the first finding the equilibrium force and the second finding the oscillating force

for the first part, let's write Newton's equilibrium equation

        B₀ - W = 0

        B₀ = W

        ρ_fluid g V_fluid = W

the volume of the fluid is the area of ​​the cube times the height it is submerged

      V_fluid = A y  

For the second part, the body introduces a quantity and below this equilibrium point, the equation is

        B - W = m a

        ρ_fluid g A (y₀ + y) - W = m a

        ρ_fluid g A y + (ρ_fluid g A y₀ -W) = m a

       ρ_fluid g A y + (B₀-W) = ma

the part in parentheses is zero since it is the force when it is in equilibrium

      ρ_fluid g A y = m a

      this equation the net force is

      F_{y} = ( ρ_fluid g A) y

we can see that this force varies linearly the distance and measured from the equilibrium position
