Let us assume that our galaxy consists of 2.5 × 1011 stars each of one solar mass. How long will a star at a distance of 50,000 ly from the galactic centre take to complete one revolution? Take the diameter of the Milky Way to be 105 ly

उत्तर १
Mass of our galaxy Milky Way, M = 2.5 × 1011 solar mass
Solar mass = Mass of Sun = 2.0 × 1036 kg
Mass of our galaxy, M = 2.5 × 1011 × 2 × 1036 = 5 ×1041 kg
Diameter of Milky Way, d = 105 ly
Radius of Milky Way, r = 5 × 104 ly
1 ly = 9.46 × 1015 m
∴r = 5 × 104 × 9.46 × 1015
= 4.73 ×1020 m
Since a star revolves around the galactic centre of the Milky Way, its time period is given by the relation:
`T = ((4pi^2r^3)/(GM))^(1/2)`
= `((4xx(3.14)^2xx (4.73)^2 xx 10^(60))/(6.67xx10^(-11)xx5xx10^(41)))^(1/2) = ((39.48xx105.82xx10^(30))/33.35)^"1/2"`
= `(125.27 xx 10^(30))^(1/2) = 1.12 xx 10^(16) s`
1 year = `365 xx 324 xx 60 xx 60 s`
1s = `1/(365xx24xx60xx60)` year
`:.1.12xx10^(16) s = (1.12 xx 10^(16))/(365xx24xx60xx60)`
= `3.55 xx 10^8` year
उत्तर २
Here, r = 50000 ly = 50000 x 9.46 x 1015 m = 4.73 x 1020 m
M = 2.5 x 1011 solar mass = 2.5 x 1011 x (2 x 1030) kg = 5.0 x 1041kg
We know that
`M =(4pi^2r^3)/(GT^2)`
or` T = ((4pi^2r^3)/"GM")^(1/2) = [(4xx(22/7)^2xx(4.73xx10^(20))^3)/(6.67xx10^(-11)xx(5.0xx10^(41)))]^(1/2)`
= `1.12 xx 10^(16)` s

To verify Kepler's third law graphically four students plotted graphs. Student A plotted a graph of T (period of revolution of planets) versus r (average distance of planets from the sun) and found the plot is straight line with slope 1.85. Student B plotted a graph of T2 v/s r3 and found the plot is straight line with slope 1.39 and negative Y-intercept. Student C plotted graph of log T v/s log r and found the plot is straight line with slope 1.5.

Earth’s orbit is an ellipse with eccentricity 0.0167. Thus, earth’s distance from the sun and speed as it moves around the sun varies from day to day. This means that the length of the solar day is not constant through the year. Assume that earth’s spin axis is normal to its orbital plane and find out the length of the shortest and the longest day. A day should be taken from noon to noon. Does this explain variation of length of the day during the year?
