Question
Chapter 34, Problem 10RQ
To determine
The three galactic cluster found within our Local Supercluster.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 10RQ
The three galactic cluster found within our Local Supercluster are Local Group, Virgo Cluster, and Eridanus Cluster.
Explanation of Solution
The galaxies tend to be the cluster that can be distinguished into a group. More than 54 galaxies are part of this cluster, which is termed as Local Group. This Local Group is under the influence of gravitational force due to neighboring galactic galaxies. These together form a cluster known as Supercluster. The local group is one of the mirror components of the Supercluster and is located in the middle of the other two galactic clusters.
The Virgo cluster and Eridanus cluster are other galactic clusters which are located inside the Local Supercluster. The network of the Supercluster is extended to the edge of the universe, which is approximately 14 billion farther.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the three galactic cluster found within our Local Supercluster are Local Group, Virgo Cluster, and Eridanus Cluster.
