The great astronomer Edwin Hubble discovered that all distant galaxies are receding from our Milky Way Galaxy with velocities proportional to their distances. It appears to an observer on the Earth that we are at the center of an expanding universe. Figure 3.64 illustrates this for five galaxies lying along a straight line, with the Milky Way Galaxy at the center. Using the data from the figure, calculate the velocities: (a) relative to galaxy 2 and (b) relative to galaxy 5. The results mean that observers on all galaxies will see themselves at the center of the expanding universe, and they would likely be aware of relative velocities, concluding that it is not possible to locate the center of expansion with the given information. Figure 3.64 Five galaxies on a straight line, showing their distances and velocities relative to the Milky Way (MW) Galaxy. The distances are in millions of light years (Mly), where a light year is the distance light travels in one year. The velocities are nearly proportional to the distances. The sizes of the galaxies are greatly exaggerated; an average galaxy is about 0.1 MlY across.
Light travels at a speed of about 3 103 m/s. (a) How many miles down a pulse of light travel in a time interval of 0.1 s, which is about the blink of an eye? (b) Compare this distance to the diameter of Earth.
I would like to know how to solve for the acceleration of this problem. I did one problem similer to it which was correct. Though I forgot how to solve for it. It is a kinamatics problem. Just in case I have sent two screenshots of the one that was solved and the one I still have questions about.

a tiger is 45 ft directly south of a herd of elephants. the tiger starts to sinks towards the elephants at a rate of 3 ft/sec, 5 seconds after the tiger starts its path towards its elephant, on elephant bolt directly east at a rate of 7 ft/sec. how far is the distance between the tiger and bolting elephant changing four seconds after the elephant leaves the herd, assuming the tiger continues on its path towards the heards
You are arguing over a cellponone while trailing an unmarked police car by 27 m. Both your car and the police car are traveling at 105 km/h. Your argument diverts your attention from the police car for 1.5 s (long enough for you to look at the phone and yell, "I won't do that!"). At the beginning of that 1.5 s, the police officer begins emergency braking at 5 m/s2 Other known values: The separation between the two cars when your attention finally returns is 21.37 m. Suppose it takes you another 0.4 s to realize your danger and begin braking. If you also brake at 5 m/s2, your speed when you hit the police car is 70.81 km/h. (a) How much time passes between your initial braking and the collision? (b) How much distance do you cover during this time (i.e., while braking)?
6. What is the angle that can give to the maximum range with zero air resistance? Select one: a. 10º b. 45º c. 0º d. 25º
3. A baseball is thrown upward from the top of Otto Hahn (which is 7 floors high) with an initial speed of 18 ft/s. Mr. Nakset who is on the 7 floor sees it pass by as it falls to the ground. If one floor is ten feet high and the eye level of Mr. Nakset is 5 feet from the floor, how many seconds have passed from when it was released to when Mr. Nakset saw it?
Two triggers, 20 feet apart, activate when a car's tires run over them. The time between the two signals is 0.4 seconds. 1) Calculate the speed of the car in mph. (This may speed your conversion: 88 ft/s = 60 mph.) 2) how might someone evade the speed trap, if he spots it just as he's about to hit the first signal?
I need help with this problem because its to confusing for me thank you
this is incorrect can u pls do it again in the answer format given
hi ! can u write the solutions legibly ? and explain it if possible, thank you so much <3
