Science Concepts

Front

Independent Variable

Back

Thing being changed. X-axis

Front

Dependent Variable

Back

Thing being measured. Y-Axis. It is dependent on the independent variable.

Front

Red Shift

Back

Moving away.

Front

Hubble's Law

Back

The universe must be expanding and carrying the galaxies with it.

Front

Big Bang Theory

Back

The singularity couldn't contain all the energy, so it started to expand and still is. The universe as we know it started with an infinitely hot and dense single point that inflated and stretched. It is the still-expanding cosmos that we know today.

Front

Doppler Effect

Back

the increase (or decrease) in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move towards (or away from) each other.

Front

Parallax

Back

How far away a start actually is.

Front

What are the possible ways the universe might end?

Back

1. 1. The Big rip

2. 2. Big Crunch

3. 3. Big Freeze

Front

Nuclear Fusion

Back

When multiple atoms fuse together.

Front

How does the Doppler Effect help explain the Big Bang Theory?

Back

Shows that everything is expanding. This allows for Big Bang Theory, because after a “bang” occurs all of the matter moves away from the point of origin.
