- why is it difficult to measure the Hubble constant?If a galaxy is receding from us at 0.10c. Use Hubble's law to estimate the distance to this galaxy if the Hubble constant is 22 km/s per million light-years. (c = 3.00 × 108 m/s, 1 ly = 9.461 × 1015 m, 1 y = 3.156 × 107 S O 1.4 × 10^9 ly O 6.6 × 10^5 ly 6.6 × 10^5 Mly O 2.2 MlyCalculate the Hubble constant for a universe which is 10 billion years old.
- Suppose you have obtained spectra of several galaxies and have measuerd the observed wavelength of the H-Alpha line (rest wavelength = 656.3 nm) to be Galaxy 1: 658.1 nm. Galaxy 2: 667.1 nm. Galaxy 3: 677.6 nm. Assuming a Hubble Constant of 72.5 km/s/Mpc, calculate the distance to each of these galaxies (answer in Mpc)Calculate the Hubble constant for a universe that is 20 billion years old.The critical density of a universe is around 5×10-27 kg/m³. Estimate the Hubble constant for this universe.
- What is the spatial radius of curvature for a hypothetical closed universe at a moment of time with given values below. Give the answer in units of Mpc, to the nearest integer (not in scientific notation - e.g., 1234). Values: H = 51 km s-1 Mpc-1 ρ = 2.9x10-26 kg m-3There 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?
