What would happen if you outran the expansion of the universe. What would you find. Please give thorough explanation?

Expert Solution

Ond cannot travel faster than the speed of light, and the Universe is expanding at the speed of light, so we couldn't outrun it.

Also, if we are thinking that the universe is like a balloon with all existence trapped inside and nothingness dwelling on the outside. In actuality, all existence dwells on the surface of the balloon as it expands. When you travel, you can only travel on the surface. We cannot go in the balloon, or outside the balloon.

Let us suppose the universe is like a raisin cake that's expanding as it's being cooked. We're all inside the cake watching the raisins/galaxies move away from us and each other as the cake expands. However, there is nothing beyond the cake....no space, no time, no nothin! The cake is all that there is and it's not infinite in size. That's the meaning of "finite and unbounded". We assume it's expanding spherically as most expansions do, but the added space is all internal to the cake/universe.

1. Expansion of the Universe (Hubble) a) Would the Universe be older if the expansion rate was H0 = 50 km/s/Mpc or if H0 = 75 km/s/Mpc? Explain. b) What is the age of the Universe if the Hubble constant is measured to be 75 km/s/Mpc? Express your answer in billions of years. Would this value be consistent with the range for the Hubble time from the HST Key Project? Explain. c) On average, how do the velocities of far...

Describe what happens to the expansion rate and age of the universe when you increase the density of the attractive mass in the universe. Why do these changes occur?(mass means gravity)

In a universe with dark energy, the rate of expansion of the universe immediately after the formation of the universe is decelerating but changes to accelerating in the more recent past. Why might this change occur?(Recall how the density of the universe changes with time)

You find that the polarity of microtubules in the alternate universe cilia is the opposite of the polarity of the microtubules in cilia from your body. Describe the arrangement of the microtubules of these alternate universe cilia. Also, describe possible steps for the process of intraflagellar transport in these alternate universe cilia.

1. What would happen to blood flow if pressure increased? Decreased? What would happen to blood flow if resistance increased? Decreased? 2. What kinds of things affect resistance in blood vessels? Which one of these has the greatest effect? Explain why in terms of laminar flow.

21. Recent measurements of the expansion rate of the Universe show that it is accelerating as opposed to being constant. Cosmologists think this is due to a. the missing mass in the Universe. b. “dark energy” that, like dark matter, has yet to be detected directly. c. neutrinos. d. supernovae. 22. (T/F) One reason “dark matter” is dark is because it does not emit light, nor does it interact with normal matter through the electromagnetic force. 23. (T/F) “Dark...

what would happen to the values you calculated for kc in the experiment if the beer's law constant (k) value you used was high (e.g.you used 6000 M^-1 when the actual constant had a value of 5000 M^-1) ? Explain your answer.

What would happen if at rest, there was no concentration gradient for Na+ or K+? You have a muscular dysfunction that lacks T-tubules. How might this affect muscle contraction? You have a muscular dysfunction that lacks sarcoplasmic reticulum. How might this affect muscle contraction? You have a muscular dysfunction that lacks voltage-gated channels. How might this affect muscle contraction? You have a muscular dysfunction that lacks chemically-gated channels. How might this affect muscle contraction? If tropomyosin is never moved off actin, what would be...
