Problem 21SEQ

Black Holes in Other Galaxies. In which type of galaxy would you expect to find the most massive black hole: a dwarf irregular galaxy, a large spiral galaxy with a small bulge, or a large elliptical galaxy? Explain.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3:

The black holes which are greater in size are called as most massive black holes. Every galaxy has most massive black holes irrespective of their shape and size. Sagittarius A is the supermassive black hole in the center of our milky way galaxy. These black holes have the mass in the order of hundreds of thousands to billions of solar masses. We are going to find the type of galaxies which lack most massive black hole.
