Linear and Angular Quantities in the Curved Expanding Universe

From Visual Physics Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

In a circular expanding space dimension, phenomena can be properly described through polar quantities (polar coordinates, angular distance, angular velocity). If we use linear quantities, an object will seem to move away from a Stationary Observer due to the expansion of the space dimension, even if its angular distance remains constant.
