Because the DNA cannot travel very long and spread apart when the strands are heavy. As a result, the DNA strands will all travel a relatively short distance and be closer together.
Not always. Different chromosomal fragments travel different distances in electrophoresis due to their different lengths. Longer fragments are heavier and therefore travel shorter distances under the same electrical force.
It is because the distance you have to travel between to places never have a straight path from point to point.
A lightyear is the distance that light can travel in one year.
Miles is a measure of distance, not time. The relation between distance and time is the measurement of how much time it takes an object to travel a specific distance at a specific rate of travel (speed).

The longest distance you can travel from north to south in Brazil is 2,731 miles. The longest distance east to west is 2,684 miles.
The longest distance ever was 18 feet by Horst Schultz
Yes, electrophoresis involves seperation depending upon size by applying charge to the DNA sample loaded which then travels form negative to positive eletrode as DNA being negatively charged. Thus the small sized molecules will travel faster as compared to larger molecules.

Let's put it this way, we know that electrophoresis is a test for the sizes of the fragments of DNA molecules while SDS-page is a test of the size of protein molecules. If you use electrophoresis to test the differences of protein, there will not be any bands as all the protein will travel to the end of SDS-page. Therefore, we can conclude that the pores of electrophoresis is much more larger than SDS-page. Since electrophoresis has larger pores than SDS-page, it also shows that overall DNA is larger than protein in size.
No. In general, for the simplified case of constant speed, use the formula: distance = speed x time

Agarose is used in gel electrophoresis to separate nucleic acids (like DNA) by size, charge an other physical properties. Gel electrophoresis uses an electrical current to make particles move. For example, DNA is negative, so it'll travel towards to positive electrode of the gel box. Agarose has small pores through which a DNA can travel. Bigger fragments of DNA travel shorter distances, because it takes longer for them to navigate through the pores of the agarose gel. Identically sized pieces of DNA will travel the same distance, which is why you get bands (DNA with loading dye) after you run a a gel.
