Here's a formula that's simple and useful, and if you're really in
high school physics, I'd be surprised if you haven't see it before.
This one is so simple and useful that I'd suggest memorizing it,
so it's always in your toolbox.
This formula tells how far an object travels in how much time,
when it's accelerating:
Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (Time²).
D = 1/2 A T²
For your student who dropped an object out of the window,
Distance = 19.6 m
Acceleration = gravity = 9.8 m/s²
D = 1/2 G T²
19.6 = 4.9 T²
Divide each side by 4.9 : 4 = T²
Square root each side: 2 = T
When an object is dropped in Earth gravity,
it takes 2 seconds to fall the first 19.6 meters.
Answer: When we use an analogy that represents the expanding universe with the surface of an expanding balloon, what does the inside of the balloon represent? The inside of the balloon does not represent any part of our universe.

Explanation:
The speed is changing its direction all the time. There
is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called
centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no
acceleration.
This is the general formula for acceleration
a = dv/dt
When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change
in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt
tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference
between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity
(the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).
There is a formula (which can be deducted from the
previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:
a = v^2/r
Let’s talk about the units:
v is in m/s
r is in m
so v^2/r
is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2
which is the same unit as dv/dt:
dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2
