Answer:
A. absorb heat energy and move farther apart
Explanation:
The answer is A since when a ice cube takes in heat, it changes form and melts down to a liquid : water.
The molecules in water are farther apart since they are moving around alot but can be contained in a container.
Answer:
First, as you may know, the light travels at a given velocity.
In vaccum, this velocity is c = 3x10^8 m/s.
And we know that:
distance = velocity*time
Now, if some object (like a star ) is really far away, the light that comes from that star may take years to reach the Earth.
This means that the images that the astronomers see today, actually happened years and years ago (So the night sky is like a picture of the "past" of the universe)
Also, for example, if an astronomer sees some particular thing, he can apply a model (a "simplification" of some phenomena that is used to simplify it an explain it) and with the model, the scientist can infer the information of the given thing some time before it was seen.
