2000 Ho=68 km/s MPC + Redshift (km/s) 1000 + + Virgo Cluster + 10 20 Distance (Mpc) 0 The universe is expanding according to Edwin Hubble's famous equation v = Hod where v is the velocity of a galaxy at distance d away. Professional astronomers usually talk about Hubble's Constant in the weird units of H, = 70 km/sec/Mpc. This final unit, "Mpo" is the "Megaparsec" and it equals approximately 3 million light years. This is a powerful equation. It...

The...
a) A galaxy cluster has a recessional velocity of 44,000 km/s. Using the best estimate for Hubble's constant, find the distance to the galaxy cluster. ____________ Mpc b) Suppose the Hubble constant had a value of H= 145 km/s/Mpc. What would be the age of the universe? __________ billion years c) What if H had a value of 35 km/s/Mpc? ____________ billion years
The Hubble Parameter The constant describing the rate of this recession, called the Hubble parameterHubble parameterA measure of the rate of expansion of the universe, which is the average value of the velocity of recession divided by distance: about 70 km/s/megaparsec. Hubble parameter A measure of the rate of expansion of the universe, which is the average value of the velocity of recession divided by distance: about 70 km/s/megaparsec. , is used to determine the age and size of the...

9/ the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to 3 men who study white dwarf supernova explosions, which are known as Type la supernovae. The following problem is designed to give you a feel for what they did, and the sorts of apparent brightnesses and distances they were working with. A typical Type la supernova explosion has a luminosity of 1.72 x 10^36 W. If we observe such a supernova to have an apparent brightness of 1.25 x 10^-17...
Expansion of the Universe Exercise Student Name: Step 1. 1. Using the data in Figures 1-4, measure the peak in nanometers) of the Ho from the spectra for each of the four galaxies presented. Step 2. A. Record the wavelength of the highest peak of each galaxy in Table 1. B. Use Equation 1 to calculate the redshift value (z) for each one and record these values in Table 1 as well. c. For the wavelength of HO from a...
