A distant galaxy has an apparent magnitude of 13 and is 5,000 kpc away. What is its absolute magnitude? (Round your answer to at least one decimal place.)The difference in absolute magnitude between two objects viewed from the same distance is related to their fluxes by the flux-magnitude relation.FA= 2.51(MB - MA)FBHow does the absolute magnitude of this galaxy compare to the Milky Way (M = -21)?F,distant galaxyFMilky Way

Hi! I just need help with the part circled in red. Thank you!
I'm unsure where to start in this proble. By comparing equations, does that mean Vo=5? How can we tell what acceleation is? Does the power rule allow us to make 1/2t^2 just 1t? I've attached images below
The figure below shows the spectra of two galaxies A and B.
As we discussed, clouds are made of a great many small drops. Really - a great many. Imagine a liquid cloud that fills a volume of 1 km3. The clouds contains 100 drops per cubic centimeter; for the sake of argument assume that each is 10 microns (micrometers) in radius. A. How many drops does the cloud contain? Compare this to a big number - say, the number of stars in the galaxy. B. What mass of water does the cloud contain? Compare this to something big - elephants, trucks, that sort of thing. C. What fraction of the cloud volume is filled with condensed water? One way to approach this is to compare the density of the suspended liquid water to the density of the surrounding air. D. How many 1 mm drizzle drops could you make from all the cloud drops? E. How much energy was released when this water condensed from vapor to liquid? If the water condensed in 20 minutes (a reasonable lifetime for a small cloud), what was the (energy per time)? power
Question 2: apparent magnitude my 1 = 305.9, b = −44.9 and is d=4.5 kpc from the Sun. a.) The integrated light from the Milky Way globular cluster NGC 104 has an 4.03 mag and absolute magnitude My -9.52 mag. It is located at b.) = = Estimate the amount of extinction between the Sun and 47 Tucanae in magnitudes. What does this value of extinction mean for the amount of attenuation by dust between Earth and NGC 104?.

Are the galaxies red-shifting or blue-shifting? Explain. (You may find the big-bang theory helpful). Andromeda galaxy is currently approaching our galaxy with a radial velocity of 266 km/sec. How far is our galaxy from Andromeda? (Hubble’s constant, H, is 73 km/sec/MParsec). When can the two galaxies be anticipated to collide?

2. A galaxy cluster has a galaxy behind it whose image we see as being smeared out and curved, with an angular radius of curvature on the sky of θE. The background galaxy is at redshift zgal and the cluster is at zclust. What is the mass of the cluster in solar masses? Give your response in scientific notation with one decimal place. (The Hubble constant is of course 70 km/s/Mpc, and you can assume the Hubble law for these low redshifts). Values: zgal = 0.11 zclust = 0.07 θE = 117.4 arcseconds
For a circular velocity profile of the type (r) = ar¹ ar1/9, where a is a constant and r is the radial distance from the centre of a spiral galaxy, find the ratio (r)/(r), where (r) is the epicyclic frequency and 2(r) is the angular velocity. Enter your answer to 2 decimal places.
