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.

W = _|....F*dx*cos(a)........With F=force, x=distance over which force acts on object,
.......0.............................and a=angle between force and direction of travel.

Since the force is constant in this case we don't need the equation to be an integral expression, and since the force in question - the force of friction - is always precisely opposite the direction of travel (which makes (a) equal to 180 deg, and cos(a) equal to -1) the equation can be rewritted like so:

W = F*x*(-1) ............ or ............. W = -F*x

The force of friction is given by the equation: Ffriction = Fnormal*(coeff of friction)

Also, note that the total work is the sum of all 45 passes by the sandpaper. So our final equation, when Ffriction is substituted, is:

W = (-45)(Fnormal)(coeff of friction)(distance)
W = (-45)...(1.8N).........(0.92).........(0.15m)
W = ................-11.178 Joules

A 4 kg car with frictionless wheels is on a ramp that makes a 25° angle with the horizontal. The car is connected to a 1 kg mass
stellarik [79]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

W₁ = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N
W₂ = (1 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 9.8 N

The normal reaction on the 4-kg mass is
N = (39.2 N)*cos(25°) = 35.5273 N
The force acting down the inclined plane due to the weight is
F = (39.2 N)*sin(25°) = 16.5666 N

The net force that accelerates the 4-kg mass at a m/²s down the plane is
F - W₂ = (4 kg)*(a m/s²)
4a = 16.5666 - 9.8
a = 1.6917 m/s²

Answer: 1.69 m/s²  (nearest hundredth)

How large an expansion gap should be left between steel railroad rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 40.0°C greater th
ella [17]

Answer:

19.68 × 10⁻³ m

Explanation:

Given;

Original Length, L₁ = 41.0 m

Temperature Change, ΔT = 40.0°C

Thermal Linear expansion of steel is given to be, ∝_{steel} = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C

   Generally, Linear expansivity is expressed as;

                               ∝ = ΔL / L₁ΔT

Where

∝ is the Linear expansivity

ΔL is the change in length, L₂ - L₁

L₂ is the final length

L₁ is the original length

ΔT is the change in temperature θ₂ - θ₁ (Final Temperature - Initial Temperature)              

From equation of linear expansivity

                         ΔL = ∝_{steel}L₁ΔT

                         ΔL = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C × 41.0 m × 40.0 °C

                         ΔL = 19.68 × 10⁻³ m

                         ΔL = 19.68 mm
