Can you please help w/ the question in the pic? This is the data I have so far: 1. Determine the mass M of the massive object at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Take the distance of one light year to be 9.461x10^15: answer= 4.26*10^37 2.Express your answer in solar masses instead of kilograms, where one solar mass is equal to the mass of the sun, which is 1.99*10^30: answer=2.14*10^7 TIA
In general relativity, gravity changes time. Gravitational potential = - G M / R. Time change r = At/t = A/c². A satellite (e.g., GPS) orbits 21 km above Earth surface, and gravity at the satellites are a little different from Earth surface. The distance error is Ad = c At. Ad is km in one day Please do not copy and paste. Thank you!

The Small Magellanic Cloud is a dwarf galay orbiting the Milky Way at a distance of 50 kiloparsecs from its center, on a circular orbit. It is moving at a velocity. rolative to the Milky Way, of 207 km/s. What is the mass of the Milky Way, in units of solar masses, inside the Cloud's orbit? B !! 245 If'a quasar emits 10^(10) times the Sun's luminosity, converting 10% of the mass of the material it eats into radiation, how many stars (ach of the Sun's mans) must it consume per year?
The Millennium Falcon is approximately 35.2 m long. There are conflicting reports, but the Fàlcon made the Kessel Run in approximately 12.95 parsecs. This is an odd unit to measure speed with as a parsec is a unit of length equal to 3.26 light-year. The science FICTION comes in when you consider that ships in Star Wars use hyperdrive to travel faster than the speed of light, so they are able to make jumps through space. Han Solo picked difficult or dangerous points to jump between to make the trip so short.tet's imagine that the Millennium Falcon travels at 0.95c during the 12.95 parsec Kessel Run. What distance, in light-year, does an observer at the finish line measure for the trip? Don't forget to convert parsec to light-year. light-year What distance, in light-year, does Han Solo measure for the trip as he pilots the ship? | light-year
A light year (LY) is the distance that light travels in one year. 1 LY = 9.46x1015 m. Suppose we have detected a planet that orbits a star that is 104 light years away. How many millions of years would it take us to get there if we used a modern rocket with a maximum speed of 20.0 km/s (about 45,000 mph)? Assume 3 sig figs.

I'm having trouble completing the problem I've attached a picture of below. I was able to find the the Earth's average speed in m/s relative to the sun by doing (2pi*(1.49x10^11))/31536000. But I am struggling to find the average velocity for the same thing over a period of one year in m/s. I was wondering how to calculate that? I've tried doing the (final velocity-initial velocity)/2 but the program doesn't accept my answer when using that approach.

The Schwarzschild radius, RS, of a black hole depends on its mass m, the speed of light c,and the gravitational constant G (with units m3/(kg s2)).Find a dimensionally correct expression for RS in terms of these quantities.Assuming that you found a dimensionally correct expression, can you be sure that this expression is, in fact, the correct expression for calculating the Schwarzschild radius? Explainyour answer.
