Hubble's Law
Formula:v = H0 × D
Introduction to Hubble's Law
Hubble's law describes the expansion of the universe. It states that the velocity of a receding galaxy is directly proportional to its distance from the observer. In this formula, v is the velocity of the galaxy, H0 (Hubble constant) is the constant of proportionality, and D is the distance of the galaxy from the observer.
Parameter usage:
velocity
= velocity of the galaxydistance
= distance of the galaxy from the observer
Output:
v
= velocity of the galaxy
Data validation
The velocity and distance should be greater than zero.
Summary
This formula helps in understanding the movements of celestial objects and the expansion of the universe.
