I asked the following question and was given the attached solution:
Suppose that the universe were full of spherical objects, each of mass m and radius r . If the objects were distributed uniformly throughout the universe, what number density (#/m3) of spherical objects would be required to make the density equal to the critical density of our Universe?
Values:
m = 4 kg
r = 0.0407 m
Answer must be in scientific notation and include zero decimal places (1 sig fig --- e.g., 1234 should be written as 1*10^3)
I don't follow the work and I got the wrong answer, so please help and show your work as I do not follow along easily
thanks

8 Three cosmologists have each plot-
ted a line on the Hubble-like graph of
Fig. 44-11. If we calculate the corre-
sponding age of the universe from the
three plots, rank the plots according to
that age, greatest first.
