Astronomy question:
Answer correctly and read the questions corretly, this is all one quesiton if done correclty and organized I will write a very nice review about you!
1. How did Edwin Hubble measure the distance to the Andromeda Galaxy?
He deduced it from its redshift.
He measured its parallax.
He used Cepheid variables in the Andromeda Galaxy.
He used white dwarf supernovae in the Andromeda Galaxy.
Hubble's First Attempt. Edwin Hubble's first attempt to measure the universe's expansion rate was flawed because the standard candles he was using were not properly calibrated. Look at (Figure 1)
a.Estimate the value of Ho corresponding to the solid line in the figure. Express your answer kilometers per second per million light-years to two significant figures.
b.What is the approximate age of the universe indicated by that erroneous value of Ho? Express your answer in years to one significant figure.
explain each physics formula by saying what
each variable means/stands for and explain the
formula as a whole, please. Ignore the one
about proboblilty please.
