question 36

Multiple Choice

In the figure below, three identical photons were each emitted when their local scale factor was RU = 0.5.Each is then measured after the scale factor of the universe changes to a different amount, as shown.Which photon will be measured to have the greatest cosmological redshift? In the figure below, three identical photons were each emitted when their local scale factor was R<sub>U</sub> = 0.5.Each is then measured after the scale factor of the universe changes to a different amount, as shown.Which photon will be measured to have the greatest cosmological redshift?   A)  the one at R<sub>U</sub> =1 B)  the one at R<sub>U</sub> = 2 C)  the one at R<sub>U</sub> = 3 D)  The photons at R<sub>U</sub> = 2 and 3 will be identical, and have the greatest redshift. E)  All three will have the same cosmological redshift.
