It means that, the farther away a galaxy is from us, the faster it moves away from us.

Can you have a zero velocity?

Not as long as we live in an expanding universe. All the bits are moving relative to each other.


Are quasars moving towards Earth at very high velocity?

No. Pretty much everything in the Universe is moving away from pretty much everything else in the Universe. This is because the Universe is expanding.


What two quantities did Edwin Hubble compare to discover the expansion of the Universe?

The Serperation of Galaxies which was caused by Dark Energy, and the Big Bang.


Is the total angular velocity of the universe zero?

Hmm...angular velocity. First of all, when you talk about the universe, it seems like you are talking about an object. But the universe is a rapidly expanding object of space and time, so there should be no real boundaries. That means it can't really rotate at all. So, in conclusion, using angular velocity is not suitable for measuring what you are trying to find.


Who was the astronomer that discovered the universe was expanding?

Edwin HubbleAnswer2:Hubble did not believe the universe is expanding. The universe is not expanding like the big bang, it is excited like an atom. The electrons jump to a higher level and lower their speed. The lower speed is a lower energy state, the max energy is when v=c.Hubble;s relationship v=HD indicates the distance D from the max energy state, where v = c.Hubble's Constant is dR/Rdt =c/R =H = 300M/150TT = 2E-18 m/s x31E21 = 62km/s/Megaparsec.


What is the relationship of the object's speed to its velocity?

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. Velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time.


Why does velocity not depend on distance?

Velocity does depend on distance. Velocity = Distance/Time


What kind of mathematical relationship exists between velocity and distance?

the equation for average velocity a = s/t s = distance travelled t = time examples miles/hour, meters/sec


What is the mathematical equation for calculating the expansion of the universe?

v = H0D Where v is the velocity at which a galaxy moves away from us, and D is its distance. With H0 being the constant of proportionality (the Hubble constant) between the distance D to a galaxy and its velocity v.


What is the relationship between the period of time and the velocity in circular motion?

The relationship between the period of time and the velocity in circular motion is inverse. As the period of time increases, the velocity decreases, and vice versa. This is because velocity is defined as the distance traveled per unit of time, so if the same distance is covered in a longer period of time, the velocity will be lower.


Equations for velocity?

Velocity = distance / unit of time


What is the relationship between the distance of the planets from the sun and the time it takes to revolve around the sun?

there is no true relationship between distance from the sun and orbit time as some planets go revolves at a different velocity.
