Because of the cosmological expansion, a particular emission from a distant galaxy has a wavelength that is 2.00 times the wavelength that emission would have in a laboratory. Assuming that Hubble’s law holds and that we can apply Doppler-shift calculations, what was the distance (ly) to that galaxy when the light was emitted?
A K⁻ meson has a rest lifetime of 1.24 x 10⁻⁸ s. If one of these particles is created in a particle collider at speeds of 0.9992c, how long will researchers see it exist from their frame of reference?
Edwin Hubble observed that the light from very distant galaxies was redshifted and that the farther away a galaxy was, the greater its redshift. What does this say about very distant galaxies?
When Hubble first estimated the Hubble constant, galaxy distances were still very uncertain, and he got a value for H of about 600 km/s per Mpc. What would this have implied about the age of the universe?
What problems would this have presented for cosmologists?

- In the Check Your Learning section of Example 27.1, you were told that several lines of hydrogen absorption in the visible spectrum have rest wavelengths of 410 nm, 434 nm, 486 nm, and 656 nm. In a spectrum of a distant galaxy, these same lines are observed to have wavelengths of 492 nm, 521 nm, 583 nm, and 787 nm, respectively. The example demonstrated that z=0.20 for the 410 nm line.
