Explain how redshift leads to the idea that the Universe is expanding.
Stars in a distant galaxy emit radiation. The total luminosity of the stars in the galaxy is . The emission spectrum of the radiation contains a line X at a wavelength of
. Radiation from the galaxy is observed on the Earth. The observed radiation has a radiant flux intensity of
. In the observed emission spectrum, line X is at a wavelength
of . Determine:
the distance of the galaxy from the Earth
the speed of the galaxy relative to the Earth.
