I'm doing a debate about Kalam cosmological.
I need to have an example of something out of nothing (Or maybe we can't prove the cause)?
Can you help give 5 modern physics example?
Explain how the Hubble constant, H0, can be used to make an estimate for the age of the Universe. Use the value of H0 = 0.07×103 kms-1/Mpc to estimate the Universe’s age. Comment on the significance of your answer.

What is the average density (in kg/m3) of matter in the universe?

The current (critical) density of our universe is pe = 10-26kg/m³. Assume the universe is filled with cubes with equal size that each contain one person of m = 100kg. What would the length of the side of such a cube have to be in order to give the correct critical density? How many hydrogen atoms would you need in a box of 1 m³ to reach the critical density? The matter we know, which consists mostly of hydrogen, constitutes only 4.8% of the current critical energy density of our universe. So how many hydrogen atoms are actually in a box of 1 m3 in our universe? Deep space is very empty and a much better vacuum than we can obtain on earth in a laboratory.arrow_forward
- Please answer within 90 minutes.arrow_forwardAccording to the cosmological principle, our place in the universe does not appear to be particularly special compared to any other and it allows us to make predictions about the development of other galaxies and the evolution of the universe. The principle relies on Hubble's results that the universe appears to be the same in all directions (aka it is Question Blank 1 of 2) {hint: one word} and that any large region of space at a given distance from us appears like any other large region of space at a similar distance from us (aka it is Question Blank 2 of 2) {hint: one word}arrow_forwardThe matter density in the Universe today is ?m=2.7×10−27kgm−3.
