Hubble's Law

Which of the following IS NOT true about Hubbles Law?

• The Universe is Expanding

• Galaxies are all moving away at Equal Rates

• Galaxies are Accellerating away from us depending on there distance from us

• Most of the Galaxies in the Universe are moving away from us

Based on Hubbles Law, What can you infer about each of the galaxies based on the diagram

• All the galaxies are moving away at equal rates

• Galaxy A and B are moving away while Galaxy C is moving closer

• All the Galaxies are moving away, but Galaxy C must be the most distant based on its amount of shift

• There isn't enough information to draw upon a conclusion
