Answer:
<u>For M84:</u>
M = 590.7 * 10³⁶ kg
<u>For M87:</u>
M = 2307.46 * 10³⁶ kg
Explanation:
1 parsec, pc = 3.08 * 10¹⁶ m
The equation of the orbit speed can be used to calculate the doppler velocity:
making m the subject of the formula in the equation above to calculate the mass of the black hole:
.............(1)
<u>For M84:</u>
r = 8 pc = 8 * 3.08 * 10¹⁶
r = 24.64 * 10¹⁶ m
v = 400 km/s = 4 * 10⁵ m/s
G = 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
Substituting these values into equation (1)
M = 590.7 * 10³⁶ kg
<u>For M87:</u>
r = 20 pc = 20 * 3.08 * 10¹⁶
r = 61.6* 10¹⁶ m
v = 500 km/s = 5 * 10⁵ m/s
G = 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
Substituting these values into equation (1)
M = 2307.46 * 10³⁶ kg
The mass of the black hole in the galaxies is measured using the doppler shift.
The assumption made is that the intrinsic velocity dispersion is needed to match the line widths that are observed.
The smallest parts that make up different types of matter are called atoms.
Atoms are tiny elements that are made up of literally everything on earth. <span />
Answer:
An elliptical orbit is the revolving of one object around another in an oval-shaped path called an ellipse. The planets in the solar system orbit the sun in elliptical orbits. Many satellites orbit the Earth in elliptical orbits as does the moon.
This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3
