- The goal of the project is to find as many of the valuable images of galaxy collisions as possible while minimising the time invested in classification by the experts — they really don’t want to go through all of the “test negative” images to find a significant number of missed collisions. In order to better understand the capabilities of several citizen scientists for future projects, an expert classified all of the images in the library. From this information, the sensitivity and specificity of citizen scientists Beta, Gamma, and Delta in identifying images of galaxy collisions are shown in the table. Who do you think has the best performance given the goals of the project? Justify your answer.Suppose an alien race on a distant planet tries to send a message to us, with a laser (light). However, we were unaware that there is a stellar-mass black hole almost directly between us and them. How would this complicate our attempts to locate their position in the Galaxy? O Gravitational lensing would make the signal appear to be coming from a different location O The information carried by the laser (light) would be altered O It would not matter The black hole absorbs all of the lightImagine that an observed distant galaxy is measured to have a distance of 20 Mpc by a Type Ia supernovae and the redshift of the galaxy indicates the galaxy appears to be moving away from us at a speed of 2200 km/s. What would the Hubble constant be if measured solely based on this galaxy in units of km/s/Mpc?
- Suppose a quasar has a luminosity of 1012 LO. What is the smallest mass that the quasar could have and still continue to pull surrounding gas into itself?Using a value for Hubble's constant of 71 km/s per Mpc, find the distance of a galaxy that is receding at a velocity of 1600 km/s.What are the similarities and differences between blazars and quasars?
