The critical mass density needed to just halt the expansion of the universe is approximately 10-26 kg/m3. Convert this to eV/c2.m3 .
The mass of the neutrino plays an important role in the universe. Suppose the mass of
two neutrinos in the universe is 4.8×10-³5 kg and the current Hubble’s constant is
72 km/s/Mpc. The critical density of the universe is five times the average density of
the universe. Estimate the number of neutrons present per cubic meter in the universe.

(d) 8.1×107
The critical mass density needed to just halt the expansion of the universe is approximately 10-26 kg/m3. Find the number of neutrinos per cubic meterneeded to close the universe if their average mass is 7 eV/c2 and they have negligible kinetic energies.
