There are 3 parts to this question and I need three different answers! I need the answer to part 1 in km/s/Mpc, I need to know what the hubble time is in years (I already tried 14 billion and that was incorrect), and I need to know part 3 in years. Thank you!

- With the aid of one or more diagram, explain how observations of the CMB can be used to determine whether or not space is flat, positively curved or negatively curved. Describe two pieces of evidence that have led to the suggestion that the Universe contains Dark Energy.Does Hubble's Law work well for galaxies in the Local Group (such as Andromeda)? No, because dark energy is accelerating the universe's expansion over those distances. No, because we do not know the precise value of Ho. No, because Hubble did not know the Local Group existed when he discovered his law. Yes, it works well for all galaxies. No, because galaxies in the Local Group are bound gravitationally together.Choose the BEST answer to the following: If a star that is 20 light-years from Earth explodes, gravitational waves from the explosion would reach Earth in (a) less than 20 years. (b) 20 years. (c) more than 20 years. (d) None of these.
- In the reading, you were told that there were roughly 10,000 galaxies in the image of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field alone. The image is roughly 10 square arcminutes and there are roughly 1.5*10^8 square arcminutes composing the entire sky. With that in mind and assuming that the Hubble Ultra Deep Field represents an average part of the sky, roughly how many galaxies may exist in the observable universe? (Please include commas for every factor of 1,000; for example 2,343,567,890)Your friends are talking about Olber's Paradox: Friend 1: When the universe was quite young, it was also quite small, and therefore light was trapped inside the universe. This is why we don't see light from the edge of the universe in every direction. Friend 2: No, Olber's Paradox describes only light from stars, not from galaxies, and why you can't use light from distant stars to see at night. Friend 3: You're both right and you're both wrong. The paradox concerns itself with the expansion of the universe, and explains why light from the early universe was able to be released. Are any of them right, in part or in whole?There is only one part to this question and I need to know the particles per second. Thank you!!
- The Milky Way grew through merging with many smaller galaxies. What are the observational signatures of this process? O The motion of old stars in the bulge and halo of our galaxy are randomly orientated, meaning they were formed from collisions of small, accreted, galaxies all on different paths. O The ordered motion of the bulge / halo stars means that they came from many objects. The random motions of stars in the disk means it was formed from collisions of small, accreted, galaxies. O The motion of young stars in the disk are all in the same direction, meaning they came in as seperate objects.For the graph shown above, a) what quantity would you label the y-axis with if the distance is between galaxies and the Earth? Explain your answer. Think through what we know is happening, motion-wise, out there in the galaxy. b) Also explain why you think there are dots and a solid line, on the graph.There are two parts to this question. I need to know the years for both. I have tried 14,000,000,000, 17,908,900,000, 17.29 x 10^9, and 17.9089 x 10^9 for the hubble time and all those are wrong. I have tried 17,908,900,000, 17.29 x 10^9, and 17.9089 x 10^9 for the second question and those are wrong too.
- A new astronomical measurement suggests that the Hubble constant is 51 kilometers per second per Megaparsec. If this measurement is correct, what would the Hubble time be in units of years? Is this a plausible value based on other astronomical evidence? Why or why not?Briefly explain what is meant by “particle horizon” and “event horizon” in cosmology. Calculate the physical particle horizon, RH(t), at time t. Assume a flat FRW universe whichis dominated by a fluid that gives rise to scale factor evolution where n is a constant with 0 < n < 1, and a(t0) = a0.What is the estimated age of the Universe (in years) if the Hubble constant is 60 km/s/Mpc?
