Hubble’s Law

Hubble’s Constant

Goal of Lab Find distances and recessional velocities of galaxies. Determine Hubble’s Constant. Determine Age and Radius of the Universe! – Current known values?

Finding Velocities You first need to find your scale for the spectral images. Then measure the distance to the Calcium K & H lines to nearest ½ mm. Fill in the Table I using the appropriate equations. Note: Round your final velocities to nearest 1000!

Scale & Velocities Å Å

Velocities

Finding Distances Determine scale for galaxy images. Measure longest and shortest sides of galaxies and average them. Measure to edge of each galaxy. Fill in Table II using appropriate equations.

Scale & Distance

Plotting Carefully Plot all five of your data points. – Final Velocity vs. Distance. Use a ruler to draw a “best-fit” line starting at the origin (0,0) through your points.

Hubble’s Constant Hubble’s constant is the slope of the line you just drew. Slope= Rise ÷ Run Origin is 0,0 so you only need one point. Find a spot on your line that is on a grid cross- section. Find the y and x values here, you have your rise and your run!
