Question

  1. what is the relationship between the velocity of a galaxy and the distance of the galaxy? 2. galaxies that are furthest from the earth travel (bold one: faster or slower ).

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Hubble's Law

Hubble's Law states that the velocity ($v$) of a galaxy moving away from us is proportional to its distance ($d$) from us, expressed as $v = H_0d$, where $H_0$ is the Hubble constant.

Step2: Analyze the relationship

From $v = H_0d$, as the distance $d$ increases, the velocity $v$ also increases.

Answer:

  1. The velocity of a galaxy is proportional to its distance from us (Hubble's Law: $v = H_0d$).
  2. faster
