Answer:

Distance is directly proportional to the velocity

Explanation:

In 1929, Edwin Hubble's wrote an article that talked about relationship between the distance and recession speed/velocity of galaxies which led to what is known as the Hubble Law. This law states that galaxies are moving away from the earth at velocities proportional to their distances.

Thus is written as;

v = H_o•d

Where;

v is velocity

d is distance

H_o is Hubble's constant rate of cosmic expansion.

He came to this conclusion by generating a graph known as Hubble's classic graph which was a graph of observed velocity vs distance for nearby galaxies.

Answer:

(A) The correct answer is option (B) three halves that of the old unit.

(B) The answer is three fourth that of old unit

Explanation:

from the relation;

(A) Fromthe expression;

K = Qd/AΔT

Anew = 3/2 A(old)

(B)

K¹ = 2K(old), so we get

A(old) = A(old)/2

Combining with part A, we have;

Anew = 3/2 *A(old)/2

          = 3/4A(old)

The answer is three fourth that of old unit
