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?
A K0 meson (mass 497.61 MeV/c2) decays to a π+, π− pair with a mean lifetime of 0.89 ×-10s. Suppose the K0 has a kinetic energy of 276 MeV when it decays, and that the two π mesons emerge at equal angles to the original K0 direction.Calculate the kinetic energy of each π meson and the opening angle between them. The mass of a π meson is 139.57 MeV/c2.

- The K0 meson is an uncharged member of the particle “zoo” that decays into two charged pions according to K0 → π+ + π−. The pions have opposite charges, as indicated, and the same mass, mπ = 140 MeV/c2. Suppose that a K0 at rest decays into two pions in a bubble chamber in which a magnetic field of 2.0 T is present (see Fig. P2.22). If the radius of curvature of the pions is 34.4 cm, find (a) the momenta and speeds of the pions and (b) the mass of the K0 meson.arrow_forwardBased on quark composition of a proton, show that its charge is +1.arrow_forwardThe primary decay mode for the negative pion is +v .

This experiment consisted of a tank filled with 3 kton of water, and surrounded by photomultiplier tubes.

Estimate how many people on Earth could have perceived a flash of light, due to the Cerenkov radiation produced by the same process, when an antineutrino from the supernova traveled through their eyeball.
