In $1959$ Lyttleton and Bondi suggested that the expansion of the Universe could be explained if matter carried a net charge. Suppose that the Universe is made up of hydrogen atoms with a number density $N,$ which is maintained a constant. Let the charge on the proton be: $e_p = -(1 + y)e$ where e is the electronic charge.
Show that the velocity of expansion is proportional to the distance from the centre.
