Exploring Red Shift in the Expanding Universe

Delve into the phenomenon of redshift, the key evidence for an expanding universe due to the Big Bang. Learn how redshift affects light from distant galaxies, indicating their distance and speed. Discover how Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) supports the Big Bang theory. Explore how redshift helps us understand the universe's evolution and expansion dynamics.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Redshift questions

  2. Red shift

  3. Big bang

  4. Less/ no light pollution Less atmospheric distortion/ interference Less/ no cloud cover Image is clearer

  5. Light is red shifted The further away the galaxy is, the bigger the effect The universe is expanding

  6. Observed – original = Z x orginal Observed – 600 = 0.15 x 600 = 90 600 + 90 = 690

  7. Distance from the Earth Speed the stars/ galaxies are moving away from the earth

  8. The microwave radiation comes from radiation present just after the big bang The big bang is currently the only way of explaining CMBR The wavelength is decreased and the frequency increased

  9. Red shift

  10. It is furthest away; it has the largest red shift; it is moving away the fastest. C

  11. The observed wavelength of the dark line from the distant galaxy is increased Therefore the distant galaxy must be moving outwards from a small initial point This suggests the universe is expanding

  12. The existence of CMBR
