Question:
1) The universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos accumulates.
2) The universe is warming which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses.
3) The universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses.
4) The universe is warming which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos accumulates.
Answer:
The correct option is;
3) The Universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses
Explanation:
With the temperature measurement carried out using the CSIRO radio telescope, Astronomers have been able to determine a temperature difference in the universe from 5.08 Kelvin 7.2 billion light years away to 2.73 Kelvin in the Universe today, which is in support of the Big Bang theory that as the Universe expanded from a state of extreme temperature that cools down as the Universe expands or the cosmos disperses.
One Celsius degree is the same size as one Kelvin. Each of them is the size of 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees.
The universal law of gravitation states that:
Every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force which is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.
It means that if the gravitational force is F, then if the distance is decreased by 5 times, then the new gravitation force is:
F/5² = F/25
