α-5. Whirlpool galaxy. An imaging observation of Messier object M51, consisted of galaxy NGC 5194 (α=13h29m6s, δ=+47°13’50") and its companion NGC 5195, was made by the 1-m telescope of Weihai Observatory (WHO), on December 25, 2014. The V-band image is shown in Fig.a5.

5.1. Find the Beijing time (UTC+08, write the answer in 24h format: hh:mm) of the upper culmination of NGC 5194 in Weihai Observatory on the observing date, in form of «Tc = ...».

5.2. Estimate the angular size (diameter) of NGC 5194 (in units of arc minutes, write the answer in form of «β= ...»).

5.3. If the physical size of NGC 5194 is known as about half the size of the Milky Way Galaxy, estimate the distance to M51 (in units of Mpc, write the answer in form of «L= ...»).

5.4. Which is the morphological type of NGC 5194 ("elliptical", "spiral", "barred spiral", "irregular")? Write the answer in English in form of «Type= ...».
