High angular momentum leads to faster rotation, because faster rotation leads to collisions among particles that cause the gas to settle into a spiral disk, rather than a more spread out cloud.

What is the difference between an elliptical galaxy and a spiral galaxy?

Elliptical galaxies are ellipsoids with no clearly visible internal structure. Spiral galaxies have a very dense nucleus and a region of stars bulging outwards from the disks and, therefore, called the central bulge. Elliptical galaxies also have dense centers, but they do not protrude from the body of the galaxy.

Galaxies rotate, or spin around a central axis, and because of something called density waves, helps galaxies to become spiral in shape.

The depth of a pond is 1.5m. Calculate the pressure caused by the water at the bottom of the pond.​
Fantom [35]
  • Area=1.5(1.5)=2.25m^2
  • Force of gravity=10N

\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=\dfrac{Force}{Area}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=\dfrac{10}{2.25}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=4.4Pa

an ice cube of density 0.9g/cm3floats in fresh water of density 1g/cm³ what fraction of volume of ice is submerged?​
Serga [27]

Answer:

9/10

Explanation:

From Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force on the ice equals the weight of water displaced. Since the buoyant force equals the weight of the ice. then

ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g where ρ₁ = density of ice = 0.9 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of ice and ρ₂ = density of water = 1 g/cm³ and V₂ = volume of water.

So. ρ₁V₁ = ρ₂V₂

V₁ = ρ₂V₂/ρ₁

=  1 g/cm³V₂/0.9 g/cm³ = 10V₂/9

Now, let x be the fraction of volume of ice submerged. So V = xV₁ = volume submerged. This volume also equals the volume of water since the submerged ice displaces its own volume of water.

So V = V₂

xV₁ = V₂

x(10V₂/9) = V₂

10x/9 = 1

x = 9/10
