Answer:

Population growth (or decline) is influenced by many factors that fall into the broad realms of demographic characteristics, socioeconomic conditions, transportation infrastructure, natural amenities, and land use and development across space and time.

Lerok [7]

Answer:

A. z (galaxy 1) = -0.00515, z (galaxy 2) = -0.01707, z (galaxy 3) = -0.04008

B. v (galaxy 1) = -0.00517c, v (galaxy 2) = -0.01707c, v (galaxy 3) = -0.0401c

C. d (galaxy 1) = -21 Mpc,d (galaxy 2) = -69.4 Mpc, d (galaxy 3) = -163 Mpc

Explanation:

We begin by listing out the parameters we were given:

λ (obsv) = 656.3 nm, λ (emit 1) = 659.7 nm, λ (emit 2) = 667.7 nm,

λ (emit 3) = 683.7 nm

A) Using the Redshift formula, we have:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit)] ÷ λ (emit)

For galaxy 1:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit 1)] ÷ λ (emit 1)

z = (656.3 - 659.7) ÷ 659.7 = -0.00515

z = -0.00515

For galaxy 2:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit 2)] ÷ λ (emit 2)

z = (656.3 - 667.7) ÷ 667.7 = -0.01707

z = -0.01707

For galaxy 3:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit 3)] ÷ λ (emit 3)

z = (656.3 - 683.7) ÷ 683.7 = -0.04008

z = -0.04008

B) Using the Doppler formula, we have:

(Δλ ÷ λ) = v ÷ c

v = c * (Δλ ÷ λ)

but, z = (Δλ ÷ λ)

⇒ v = c * z

speed of light (c) = 3 x $10^{8}$ m/s

For galaxy 1:

v = c * z

Substitute z into the equation calculated from A) above

v = 3 x $10^{8}$ * (-0.00515)

v = -1.55 x $10^{6}$ m/s

v = -0.00517c

For galaxy 2:

v = c * z

Substitute z into the equation calculated from A) above

v = 3 x $10^{8}$ * (-0.01707)

v = -5.12 x $10^{6}$ m/s

v = -0.01707c

For galaxy 3:

v = c * z

Substitute z into the equation calculated from A) above

v = 3 x $10^{8}$ * (-0.04008)

v = -12.03 x $10^{6}$ m/s

v = -0.0401c

N.B: the negative value of velocity connotes that the galaxies are moving away from us (not towards us)

C) Using Hubbleʹs law, we have:

v = H · d

where:

v = velocity of a galaxy (km/s), d = distance (Mpc),

H = Hubble's constant (km/s/Mpc) = 73.8 km/sec

d = v ÷ H

We use the velocities calculated in B) above

For galaxy 1:

v = -1.55 x $10^{3}$ km/s

d = -1.55 x $10^{3}$ ÷ 73.8

d = -21 Mpc

For galaxy 2:

v = -5.12 x $10^{3}$ km/s

d = -5.12 x $10^{3}$ ÷ 73.8

d = -69.4 Mpc

For galaxy 3:

v = -12.03 x $10^{3}$ km/s

d = -12.03 x $10^{3}$ ÷ 73.8

d = -163 Mpc

N.B: distance cannot be a negative value

The creation of approximately ten million refugees from 1947 – 1948 was a result of __________.

Flauer [41]

The creation of approximately ten million refugees from 1947-48 was a result of World War II.
World War II brought destruction of lot of countries, millions of people lost their homes that were flattened with the ground, the economies were destroyed and on the verge of bankruptcy, so millions of people left their countries in search for better life (or rather just normal life).
