Question

a number of recent publications give the mass of the central object of the galaxy as app ACTIVITY 29 Calculating the Mass of the Central Object of the Galaxy 145 5. If the orbit is tilted, will that make the actual semimajor axis larger or smaller than what you measured? Will that make the mass of the central object larger or smaller than your estimate t ull make he semimajor ans Shoriex. 6. A number of recent publications give the mass of the central object of the galaxy as approxi- mately 4 million times the mass of the Sun. How do your results compare? Be sure to include comments about the uncertainty of the tilt of the orbit. Astronomers are fairly sure that there is a supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. Do you agree or disagree? Support your answer with the results you discovered here. 7.

Explanation / Answer

SOLUTION:-5.

If the orbit is titled the semi major axis will be be smaller than one measured. All other things being equal the semi-major axis of a planet's orbit, which represents the average distance of the planet from the Sun. it is the single most important factor in its average temperature and weather. the mass of central object will be smaller than earlier measure, this is due to inverse relation between them.
