Each of the four expansion models (recollapsing, critical, coasting, and accelerating) predict different ages for the universe,

given the current expansion rate. Why is this
Physics
1 answer:
cupoosta [38]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This is because the age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

Explanation:

The age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

This is due to the fact that the expansion rate in the coasting model is constant and never changes. Because the cosmos is growing faster now than during the old days, recollapsing and critical models give shorter ages. According to the accelerating model, the universe is growing at a slower rate currently than in the past, implying an older age.

Two steamrollers begin 115 mm apart and head toward each other, each at a constant speed of 1.10 m/sm/s . At the same instant, a
NeX [460]

Answer:

The distance of fly travel is 115.06 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 115 mm

Speed = 1.10 m/s

Speed of fly = 2.20 m/s

We need to calculate the relative speed

Using formula of relative speed

v=v_{1}+v_{2}

Put the value into the formula

v=1.10+1.10

v=2.20\ m/s

We need to calculate the time for the two steamrollers to meet each other

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{115}{2.20}

t=52.3\ sec

We need to calculate the distance of fly travel

Using formula of distance

d=vt

Put the value into the formula

d=2.20\times52.3

d=115.06\ m

Hence, The distance of fly travel is 115.06 m.

A ____ is the time required for one half of the nuclei in a radio- ____ isotope to decay.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

A half-life is the time required for one half of the nuclei in a radio- active isotope to decay.

Explanation:

A radio-active isotope is an isotope which undergoes radioactive decay.

Radioactive decay is a spontaneous process in which the nucleus of an atom changes its state (turning into a different nucleus, or de-exciting), emitting radiation, which can be of three different types: alpha, beta or gamma.

The half-life of a radio-active isotope is the time required for half of the nuclei of the initial sample to decay.

The law of radio-active decay can be expressed as follows:

N(t) = N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^{t/t_{1/2}}

where

N(t) is the number of undecayed nuclei left at time t

N0 is the initial number of nuclei

t is the time

t_{1/2} is the half-life

We see that when t=t_{1/2} (that means, when 1 half-life has passed), the number of undecayed nuclei left is

N(t) = N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^{t_{1/2}/t_{1/2}}=N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^1=\frac{N_0}{2}

So, half of the initial nuclei.

if weight is the force of gravity on an object, then your weight can change if the force of gravity is different on a different
Elena L [17]
Yes, your weight can change if the force of gravity is different on a different planet.

Like on the Moon because acceleration due to gravity is 1/6 that on the Earth, your weight on the Moon would be 1/6 the value on the Earth.
 
But note that you mass remains the same.

Define potentiol energy , kenetic energy.​
Pani-rosa [81]

Potential energy is stored energy. For example, if a bowling ball is on top of a giant hill, we say it has potential energy because it has the potential to do work which is to roll down the hill.

Kinetic energy is the energy of movement so once that ball rolls down that hill, that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
