If we went back in time 10 billion years, would we expect Hubble's constant to be identical to the present-day Hubble constant?

A) Yes, a constant never changes.
B) No, Hubble's constant is roughly equal to 1 divided by the age of the universe, and 10 billion is a substantial enough number to notice a difference.
C) If we went back further in time, it would be different, but 10 billion years is not enough.
D) It would only change if we went 10 billion years into the future.

Is it possible for an object to accelerate but without changing its speed?

A) Yes, for example when a car is halfway up a straight hill [a hill whose slope, or angle with the horizontal, does not change] and moving a an unchanging speed. B) Yes, for example when a car turns a corner while maintaining an unchanging speed. C) Both of the above. D) No, because the word "acceleration" means "a change in speed." E) No, because the word "acceleration" means "speeding up."
