The mathematical form of the Hubble law for the expanding universe concept relates the velocity of recession v to the distance of the observed object r (with H₀ the Hubble constant) as follows: A) r = H₀ *v B) v = H₀* r C) v = H₀/r D) v = H₀/r²

Question

The Hubble Law states that the velocity of recession (v) of a galaxy is directly proportional to its distance (r) from us, which is mathematically expressed as v = H0 × r, where H0 is the Hubble constant. This is accurately represented in option B.
