The Hubble constant, $H_{0}$, is the ratio of the recessional velocity of a galaxy to its distance. The Hubble constant is estim

ated to be 70 km/sec per million parsecs of distance. (One parsec is equal to 3.26 light years.) Based on this ratio, how many billions of light years away would a galaxy be if it had a recessional velocity of 300,000 km/sec?

Answer:

14 billion light years away

Explanation:

v = Recessional velocity = 70km/s/million parsec

D = Proper distance

Hubble constant

70\ km/s=3260000\ ly\\\Rightarrow 1\ km/s=\dfrac{3260000}{70}\ ly

From Hubble's law we have the relation

v=H_0D\\\Rightarrow D=\dfrac{v}{H_0}\\\Rightarrow D=\dfrac{3260000}{70}\times 300000}\\\Rightarrow D=13971428571.42857\ ly

The distance in light years of the galaxy is 14 billion light years away

A Perspex container has a 6 cm square base and contains
crimeas [40]

Answer:

a) V = 252 cm³

b) Vs = 72 cm³

Explanation:

a)

The volume of the water can be given by the following formula:

Volume\ of\ Water = V = (Base\ Area)(Height)\\V = (Length)^2(Height)\\V = (6\ cm)^2(7\ cm)\\

<u>V = 252 cm³</u>

<u></u>

b)

The volume of stone can be given by the change in volume of the water when the stone is dipped into it.

Volume\ of\ Stone = Vs = (Length)^2(Change\ in\ Height\ of\ Water)\\Vs = (6\ cm)^2(9\ cm - 7\ cm)\\

<u>Vs = 72 cm³</u>

SOUND IS A FORM OF WAVE.LIST AT LEAST 3 REASONS TO SUPPORT IDEA THAT SOUND IS A WAVE.
algol [13]
1 The question asks for a certain quantity of examples in a list (Name 6 factors that contributed to the start of World War I, What 3 subatomic particles constitute an atom? etc).
2 The question is academically precise and, therefore, indecisive in the wording (What are the 2 kinds of loading most professional engineers and academics in the field of engineering today generally consider to be relevant in most cases when considering typical types of structure usually made of common materials using well-understand methods?)
3 The question challenges the answerer to defend a position as opposed to merely rattling off a list based on knowledge alone, thereby invoking higher levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. (What are 4 arguments that could be used to defend arguments made by the physicists of the day that electromagnetic waves must move through an illusive substance called 'the ether?)

A desk was moved 12 m using 280 j of work. how much force was used to move the desk?
Oksana_A [137]
Let F =  required force, N

Given:
d = 12 m, distance
W = 280 J, work done

By definition,
W = F*d,
therefore
(F N)*(12 m) = (280 J)
F = 280/12 = 23.33 N

Answer: The force is 23.3 N (nearest tenth)
