I am postulating that inertial force created by the accelerated expansion of the universe creates what we observe as gravitation waves. If I could somehow relate the gravitational constant of the universe to the inertial force resulting from the accelerated expansion of the universe that could go a long way to proving or disproving my conjecture. The problem is I don’t have nearly the level of mathematics needed to solve this question. Can you help me?

Please no silly answers mocking my grammer or lack of an advanced degree in Physics. That just bores everyone.

Some recent measurments have indicated that the rate of expansion of the universe is increasing, and that is where the asker got the concept of an accelerating universe. The force that causes this expansion is believed to be a result of the "cosmological constant" added to Einstein's equations of General Relativity. That results in gravity being counteracted by a repulsion force at very large distances. That repulsion force is the inertial force that causes the acceleration of the universe. I believe the value of the cosmological constant has not yet been determined.

Hubble's law is the statement in physical cosmology that the redshift in light coming from distant galaxies is proportional to their distance. The law was first formulated by Edwin Hubble and Milton Humason in 1929[1] after nearly a decade of observations. It is considered the first observational basis for the expanding space paradigm and today serves as one of the most often cited pieces of evidence in support of the Big Bang. The most recent calculation of the constant, using the satellite WMAP began in 2003, yielding a value of 71±4 (km/s)/Mpc. As of the 2006 data, that figure has been refined to 70 (km/s)/Mpc, +2.4/-3.2.

Gravitational waves have never been observed.

What conjecture? You have stated what you call a "postulate." Postulates are elementary. Conjectures assume that postulates are correct.

Grasshopper must hit the books and burn the midnight oil. If he do, he become wise.

A good book to hit is Warped Passages by Lisa Randall. Get it used through http://www.bookfinder.com

It would also be good to study calculus and advanced physics for ten years or so.

This is a mind boggler when it comes to inertia. If we say the Earth has inertia, it must then be moving at some speed in some direction, and by Newton then, has inertial tendency to continue moving in that direction. But when we think of the universe expanding in ALL directions, everything is moving away from everything else, so which direction could the inertia be relative to? Somehow the inertia would have to be in all directions at once too,
Wouldn't it?

that is a exceptional question! I dont recognize, yet possibly this is because the stress is too small for us to word. for a lengthy time period the in basic terms way they have even detected the enlargement is through the red shift of the spectra of distant stars. notwithstanding, are the products in the universe increasing? As I realize it, the products are all shifting remote from one yet another, ensuing in one of those the universe containing the products, notwithstanding the products themselves are literally not increasing; they're only shifting remote from one yet another at a consistent %. For the products (which include our Earth) to regulate % ought to require an outdoors stress, which we ought to stumble on. As for rotational dynamics, technically acceleration is a replace in velocity. velocity incorporates no longer in simple terms a % yet a route too. If a route ameliorations notwithstanding the speed is consistent (consisting of in a rotation), that is considered acceleration. yet for that to ensue, a stress should be utilized to reason the replace in velocity. in case you connect a ball to a string and spin round, you're pulling on the ball causing the route to regulate, struggling with the ball from shifting in a immediately line; you're always making use of stress in route of your self. If the ball breaks loose, the stress will be lengthy gone and the ball will shoot outward in a immediately line, no extra rotation. a similar is authentic with gravity conserving us in the international because the Earth spins and we stay to inform the tale it, pulled inward in route of its center without taking pictures off in a tangential action (ouch!). you're excellent that too many human beings don't realize that 65mph is a continuing %, and therefore no acceleration, and also you're excellent that we are able to experience acceleration. once you're interior a automobile and the automobile quickens, you accelerate with it, and also you experience it. If a airplane flies at consistent % (and no turbulance) this is no longer a threat to locate the intense % you're travelling because there is not any acceleration. Einstein taught us all this and this is straightforward physics.

there is no way to calculate the rate of accelration of the universe, and half of what u said had no value of anything, so go somewhere else to act smart
