It shows that in the past, galaxies were closer together; also, it suggests - as is commonly believed nowadays - that some time in the past, all matter in the Universe was very close together, in a very hot and dense state.

The implication of hubbles law is that the universe is?
That it is expanding.
According to hubbles law galaxies are retreating from earth at speed that is proportional to their?
distance
Why are the theories of the origin of the universe not scientific law?
Not scientific law because there are too many possibilities, no-one can tell for sure.
How do the laws of thermodynamics support that the universe came from nothing?
They don't. What they do support is that the Universe must have had a beginning. This is because, according to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, there are irreversible processes in nature - the Universe can't remain the way it is forever.
what law states that any 2 objects in the universe attract each other?
The law of universal gravitation.
The implication of hubbles law is that the universe is?
That it is expanding.
What is is hubbles law?
Hubble's Law states that (more or less) the distance to a galaxy is a constant multiple of the distance to that galaxy. For example, if one galaxy is moving away from us at three times the speed of another galaxy, then that means it is also three times as far away. The Law indicates that the Universe is expanding and had a beginning. Before Hubble's Law, many astronomers thought that the Universe did not have a beginning (it always existed).
How old is the universe in 2011?
By using a therom call hubbles law and hubbles constant this is the calculation: 1/Ho=d/v=t t= 3.09x10 22/71000x31566926 t=13.738 billion years old
Do the stars in the milky way galaxy obey Hubbles law?

What does the Doppler effect tell scientists about the universe?
The Doppler effect causes objects that are moving towards an observer to increase in frequency while those that move away from an observer decrease in frequency. In 1920s and 1930s, Edward Hubble was measuring the Doppler shift of various stars in the night sky, and discovered that there were fa more shifted towards the red spectrum (lower frequency) then the blue spectrum (higher frequency). Hubble concluded from this fact that the universe is constantly expanding outwards, and formulated Hubbles Law to approcimate the rate of universal expansion.
Who had a theory of the law of the universe but was wrong?
Lots of people have wrong theories about the Universe.
Can you give you some funny quotes about life for your speech?
Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch it to be sure. ~Murphy's Law
Why is the universal law of gravitation universal?
The law applies to everything in the universe.
