Assume the validity of Freeman’s law and consider a spiral galaxy with central surface brightness µo = 21.5 mag/arcsec2 at a distance of 16 Mpc from Earth. a) If the absolute magnitude of the Sun in the B-band is M_B = 5.54, calculate the central surface brightness of the galaxy in terms of Solar luminosities per square parsec. b) The disk of the galaxy is observed to have an exponential surface brightness with angular scale length θR = 50 arcseconds....

When an object is placed at the proper distance to the left of a converging lens, the image is focused on a screen 30cm to the right of the lens. A diverging lens with focal length f=-24cm is now placed 15cm to the right of the converging lens. How far and in which direction do we need to move the screen to get a sharp image? How much larger is the new image?

Older televisions display a picture using a device called a cathode ray tube, where electrons are emitted at high speed and collide with a phosphorescent surface, causing light to be emitted. The paths of the electrons are altered by magnetic fields. Consider one such electron that is emitted with an initial velocity of 1.85 107 m/s in the horizontal direction when magnetic forces deflect the electron with a vertically upward acceleration of 5.30 1015 m/s2. The phosphorescent screen is a...

The stars, gas and dust in a galaxy rotate about the center of the galaxy. We would like to know exactly how to describe the rotation of all parts of the galaxy. In other words, we want to know if galaxies rotate like merry-go-rounds, or like planets orbit the Sun, or in some other way. 1. Do points near the center of a merry-go-round complete a full rotation in the same amount of time as points near the outer edge...
