- An astronomer observed the motions of some galaxies. Based on his observations, he made the following statements. Which one of them is most likely to be false? Take Hubble's constant to be 67 km/s/Mpc. A. A galaxy observed to be moving away from us at a speed of 70 km/s is at a distance of about 1 Mpc from us. B. A galaxy observed to be moving away from us at a speed of 700 km/s is at a distance of about 10 Mpc from us. C. A galaxy observed to be moving away from us at a speed of 7000 km/s is at a distance of about 100 Mpc from us. D. A galaxy observed to be moving away from us at a speed of 70000 km/s is at a distance of about 1 Gpc from us. Is the answer D? Thank you!arrow_forwardPart 1. Stellar Mass Black Holes These are the collapsed cores of massive stars which end their life in supernova explosions. The stellar core can no longer use nuclear fusion to hold up the immense gravity, and collapses until its escape velocity rises higher than the speed of light. Voila! A black hole is formed. Part A: The Schwarzschild Radius The Schwarzschild Radius is defined as: 2GM (1) = c2 where r, is the Schwarzschild radius, G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the black hole, and c is the speed of light. 1. Let's say we have a black hole with a mass 10 times that of the Sun (the Sun's mass is 2 x 1030 kg, so the mass of the black hole is then 2 x 1031 kg). Using the definitions for G and c, what would the Schwarzschild radius of this black hole be? 2. If the radius of the Sun is 7 x 108 m, how does the black hole's radius compare? (Divide the radius of the Sun by the Schwarzschild radius). Your answer should be in the form of times smaller/bigger than the…arrow_forwardWhich of the following can be concluded from the two premises below: 1. Whatever begins to exist has a cause 2.

- In 1998, it was announced that the expansion of the universe is accelerating. What does this imply from the perspective of the big bang? a. A force exists that we knew nothing about causes the expansion. b. The universe must be closed. c. The universe is finite. d. The amount of dark matter must be far less than the amount of normal matter. e. The universe must be infinitely old.arrow_forward10arrow_forwardWhat happens when galaxies collide? A. Star collisions will be rare but the shapes of the galaxies will be largely distorted. B.

Star collisions will be rare and the two galaxies will just pass through each other without any changes. Is the answer A? Thank you!arrow_forward
