Read the Blitzer Bonus attached herewith. The future is now: You have the opportunity to explore the cosmos in a starship traveling near the speed of light. The experience will enable you to understand the mysteries of the universe in deeply personal ways, transporting you to unimagined levels of knowing and being. The downside: You return from your two-year journey to a futuristic world in which friends and loved ones are long gone. Do you explore space or stay here on Earth? What are the reasons for your choice?
What is the point of view on the topic of parallel universes and black holes? Using a predominant voice in the paper, the writer's voice by weaving the information to help us understand the points we are trying to help understand. Make points, then bring in a piece of evidence to support the point of view. What is the point of view on the topic of parallel universes and black holes? Start with an introduction that is in one's voice only and then leading into a thesis - showing what's intended to be proven.
State the problems of the Hot Big Bang model in cosmology, and briefly explain how inflation solves these problems.

- Why can't we see past the cosmological horizon? The universe extends only to this horizon. Beyond the cosmological horizon, the Universe curves away from us, like the surface of the Earth. O We do not have telescopes big enough. Beyond the cosmological horizon, we are looking back to a time before the universe had formed.arrow_forwardAccording to the Big Bang Theory, order from earliest to latest, the sequence of events that are thought to have taken place at the beginning of the Universe. If statement A is first, B is second, etc. then enter ABCDEF.A) The universe becomes transparent releasing the photons of the Cosmic Microwave Background.B) Most carbon and oxygen in the Universe is produced.C) Inflation occurs.D) Hydrogen and Helium are synthesized.E) The symmetry of the four forces is broken and gravity becomes a separate force.F) Protons and anti-protons form.arrow_forwardSuppose a spaceship of length L, is traveling at a high rate of speed v relative to an observer. To the observer, the ship appears to have a smaller length given by the following formula. L=L/1- where c is the speed of light Complete the parts (a) through (d).

- Question A7 State three pieces of evidence that support the idea that the Universe began in a hot Big Bang, and explain how each piece of evidence supports the hot Big Bang model. Describe the ob- servational evidence that supports the idea that the Universe is pervaded by Dark Energy, and explain why each piece of evidence you cite supports the Dark Energy model.arrow_forwardWhich statement best describes the Big Bang Theory? O Galaxies within the universe collided about 13.5 billion years ago forming the present objects in the universe. O Existing objects in the universe move randomly with the potential of colliding in about 13.5 billion years. O Galaxies throughout the universe moved toward each other after an event that occurred about 13.5 billion years ago O Most objects in the universe are moving away from each other as a result of an event that occurred about 13.5 billion years ago. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Support | Schoology Blog | PRIVACY POLICYarrow_forwardThe presence of Dark Matter was theorized due to the curve of the data that the motion of the stars around the central core of our neighboring galaxy (Andromeda) has been approximately flat rather than decreasing at large distances. Which fundamental concept in this chapter helped us in understanding this phenomena? a.) Orbital speed b.) Escape speed c.) Law of equal areas d.) Law of elliptical orbits What happens to the magnitude of the force between two objects with the same mass if we double the distance between them? a.) The magnitude of the force will be doubled. b.) The magnitude of the force will be quadrupled. c.) The magnitude of the force will be halved. d.) The magnitude of the force will be 1/9 of its inital magnitude.e. Earrow_forward
- Hubble's First Attempt. Edwin Hubble's first attempt to measure the universe's expansion rate was flawed because the standard candles he was using were not properly calibrated. Look at (Figure 1) a.Estimate the value of Ho corresponding to the solid line in the figure.
