Question

Complete the sentence below using the words provided in parentheses (). For two universes that are the same size, the universe with the faster expansion rate must be _______ (younger/older) than the universe with the slower expansion rate. The slope of the line in the Hubble plot of the ______ (younger/older) universe will be ______ (steeper/flatter)

Answer 1

Answer:

For two universe that is the same size, the universe with the faster expansion rate must be younger than the universe with a slower expansion rate. The slope in the line of the Hubble plot of the older universe will be flatter.

Explanation:

Hubble's law establishes a direct relationship between a galaxy's distance and its redshift-determined recessional velocity. The redshifts of galaxy clusters and distant galaxies are equivalent and proportional to their distances from us, according to Hubble's theorem.

Thus, to copy and complete the given question.

For two universe that is the same size, the universe with the faster expansion rate must be younger than the universe with a slower expansion rate. The slope in the line of the Hubble plot of the older universe will be flatter.
