Chapter 34, Problem 8TE
What is the difference between the universe and the observable universe?
Expert Solution & Answer
Solution
To determine: Difference between the observable universe and the universe.
Answer:
The difference between the observable universe and the universe is shown in Table 1.
Explanation:
The difference between observable universe and the universe is shown in the table below.
| Observable Universe | Universe |
| Observable universe comprises of tiny particles which are observable from Earth. | Universe consists of matter and energy. |
| Observable universe is part of universe. | Universe includes all the planets, stars and galaxies. |
| Finite part is visible. | It is extremely big or may infinite. |
| The shape of observable universe is spherical. | The shape of universe is not known, but is proportional to its density. |
Table 1
Conclusion:
Therefore, the difference between the observable universe and the universe is shown in Table 1.
